  MetaCAD is a parametric solid modeler for Art of Illusion.
  
  This plugin uses the hierarchical tree-view in AoI to create parametric models built from 
  booleans, extrusions and rotations of simple primitives or loaded DXF outlines.

  All primitives and operations takes parameters which can be constants, variables or evaluated formulas.
  
  The modeler is quite powerful and includes a simple macro language for describing sub-objects, which
  can be instantiated multiple times with different parameters.
  The plugin includes a text area for storage of variables, formulas and macros.
