Geo loads and saves VideoScape ASCII .geo files in LightWave Modeler. VideoScape was an early Amiga 3D animation program written by Allen Hastings, author of LightWave Layout. The .geo format is attractive because it's extremely simple, making it possible to create and modify objects either by hand or by using programs that are relatively easy to write.
