Vector images?

[Richard Gaskin]

In Trevor's demo it looked pretty straightforward.  Sure, the data 
itself is no more readable to the human eye than rtfText or polygon 
points, but a simple copy-n-paste from an SVG XML file into the 
Inspector and bingo! SVG on screen.

Assuming that wasn't either a dream or some proprietary thing Trevor has 
that no one else has seen, I would imagine if the Inspector (coded in LC 
as it is) can do it, any of our scripts can do it too.
