Description: A VRML browser and editor
 VRweb is a VRML 1 browser that you can use to browse a Virtual
 Reality World (WRL).
 .
 The upstream team no longer supports VRweb as it has developed a
 replacement Java version named VRwave. However, due to the state of of GUI
 support in the free Java implementations, you may be better off staying
with
 VRWeb for now.
