Easy, as in: install it from the HotMix-19 CD, open up the executables in a hex
editor and edit about half a dozen bytes (total between the compositor and the
modeler), and start it up.  there's also a shell script lying around somwhere
that uses patch to do it for you.

I was trained long ago on CAD systems, and I usually do industrial-style
modeling.  Architectural elements, engineering assemblies, furniture, and most
recently some tube metal frameworks.

I gave up on using Lightwave - firstly it's not exactly legal, secondly it's
not very good for what I want it to do.
