WOW!  What can I say Eddie!!!  A few short months ago you were a
beginner, wondering about this window thing.  Now you have a
crystal-clear understandanding of what the stereo window is...
Much better than some of our old-timers here.  I don't think I
fully understood this concept so quickly.  What's your secret???


I might add that the stereo window is the perfect tool to make a
finite stereoscopic field compatible with real viewing.  I feel
that a well-placed stereo window enhances the perception and
pleasure of looking at a (finite) stereo image.
