GNU 3DLDF is a
CWEB package created by Donald Knuth and Silvio Levy. It is intended, among other things, to provide a convenient way of creating 3D graphics for inclusion in TeX
documents and to fit in with the "family" of programs associated with TeX. It was written by Laurence D. Finston. 3DLDF stands for "3D" plus the initials of the author (LDF). This name was chosen because the author considered it unlikely that it would clash with the name of any other software package for 3D graphics.
History
3DLDF seemed not a pure MetaPost package as it is written in C++ using CWEB, but in 2004, it was seen by some as the greatest promise for MetaPost's 3D drawing capabilities.[1]
