6SharpConstruct is an interactive 3D sculpting program. SharpConstruct
7makes it easy to quickly model organic forms in a very intuitive manner.

9For information on how to get SharpConstruct running, see the INSTALL
10file.

12SharpConstruct is licensed under the GNU GPL. See the COPYING file for
13more information.

15Some notes on hardware:
16* You need at least a semi-recent processor. Anything with SSE should be
17  fine; for example, a Pentium III.
18* The features of your graphics card are not important. More important
19  is the speed at which data can be transferred to the card. I observe
20  only a small difference in the performance of SharpConstruct when
21  switching between a GeForce2, a GeForce4 Ti, and a GeForce FX 5500.
22  (Unfortunately, I don't have any data regarding SharpConstruct on ATI
23  cards.)
24* Graphics tablets are now supported, though they have recieved limited
25  testing. Standard eraser and pressure signals are detected; tilt is
26  ignored because my graphics tablet does not support it.
27
28Some notes on software:
29* Windows is not yet supported. However, now that the interface is written
30  using GTK+, you can expect it sooner rather than later.
31* SharpConstruct uses OpenGL for rendering. I have no reason to suppose
32  that Mesa would not work fine.
33* Proper hardware support is tested for with the OglExt library:
34  http://www.julius.caesar.de/oglext
35* The interface is built with gtkmm:
36  http://www.gtk.org
37  http://gtkmm.org
38* OpenGL drawing is done with the help of GtkGLExt
39  http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net
40* All libraries used are free software.
41
42Some notes on development:
43* Though I do occasionally commit patches from other programmers, this
44  is mainly a one-person project. This means work can happen a little
45  bit slowly. If you email me with a feature request, and I agree to add
46  it, it may still take several months for anything like it to appear.
47* Related to the above, there are ways you can help. I love receiving
48  patches; coding is probably the best way you can help. Another
49  thing that would be a great help is updating the documentation.
50  Even just sending me an email with information like, "SharpConstruct
51  is working on system X/graphics card Y/driver Z" is very useful. More
52  information relate to this can be found on the SharpConstruct website.
