[osg-users] Reading files and callbacks

[Aaron Andersen]

Hi Robert,

The solution you had presented me with a few weeks back has been  
working out great for me. I just thought that if this is an often  
requested feature then OSG might benefit from having the code built  
right in... I'm still very new to OSG, so was just wondering if that  
addition would be worth while or not.
