Showobj takes a file in Imagine's TDDD (3D data description) or in
LightWave's LWOB format and displays it's contents in a window on a public
screen, or if no is given on Workbench. If no filename is given, the
program will ask for it with a filerequester.

Showobj can display the objects in three different modes:
- boundingbox mode

Four views can be selected:
- front view
- right view
- top view
