The Name

I was talking to a friend of mine and I asked about a name idea for this program. She mentioned that about 1/2 of the viewers she's seen (although she hasn't seen that many) have animal names. In college some friends and I created a 'legend' about a hamster (that one of the freshman girls snuck into the dorm) escaping and mating with one of the numerous squirrels on campus and forming a mutant "Squamster". This program is a combination of things you normally don't see together (Mesh viewer, Mesh painter, Open Source) and we decided the program was also a mutant.

Known Bugs

• If a resource location is added outside the viewer's project, "Load all" won't load from its old locations any more. (bug persists from previous release)
