ASE loader. Loads ASE formatted model files.

Originally created by David Yazel, with significant enhancements by William Denniss. The ASE loader has a unique feature that allows the extraction of a tree of TransformGroups whose geometry is relitive to their pivot points (as defined in the modelling program). Two comprehensive tutorials exist with examples detailing how to use the loader (see below for links). This package was originally in the Xith3D code under the package name com.xith3d.loaders.ase.
