Object.Join()
Seperated the join calls from space.c and view3dmenu into join_menu() in space.c, like the select_group_menu(),
okee's from join_curve, join_mesh.. etc are in join_menu() so python can call them without UI menu's in the way.
this is also a bit neater since there were 2 places that were doing what join_menu() does now.

Object.Duplicate(linked=1)
Basicly a wrapper for adduplicate();
There was previously no easy way to copy objects in python. even the ways that do exist dont take modifiers, particles etc into account.
Uses the current selection.. epydocs included also.

Still need to do Mball and Text.
Ken- this is fairly straight fwd but if you dont like it - its line 4867 of Mesh.c and 1 block that can be removed.
I tested for memory leaks and correct material user adjustment.
This is realy needed for using getFromObject to export to external rendering engines.
- Hope its ok.

There is a lot of very dangerous (and slow) string manipulation code in
there. I do not want to appear arrogant, but a bit of basic code QA in this
module certainly can't hurt.
Please see the diff for further explanation ;-)

and loading of old corrupt blendfiles.
Makes sure bhead.len is not < 0 (hacked blendfile)
also sets buffer to 0 when fails to read correctly (wasn't set so
was causing problems)
The second thing was provided by pidhash.

turns out that oops->id->lib isnt initialized? anyhow
if (oops->id && oops->id->lib) // works
where
if (oops->id->lib) // crashes
so made the needed change in a few places.
Final (?) updates for 2.40 :) :
- Bob Holcomb sent a better version of his 3ds importer
- Added doc info to bvh2arm: links to doc and mocap tute from author
Jean-Baptiste Perin
- Alessandro Pirovano improved the Lightwave importer.
- Mikael Lagre updated the collada scripts (fixed a bug with camera
lens value)
- Adam Saltsman improved the wings importer (ongoing work with
his pal Toastie).
- Anthony D'Agostino GPL'd his scripts (used Blender's BAL
license previously)
Thanks to all script authors for their work, interest and kindness.
Again, Tom (LetterRip) has played an important part in this, thanks and
welcome :).
Vpaint/weight/texture/UV modes were disabling zbuffer draw after drawing
the active object, causing objects to be drawn after (only selected ones)
to have no zbuffer on.
More bump issues... Env made very nice examples, but all of it quite nasty
to solve.
Three improvements I found nevertheless:
- bug in mipmap code for bump gave errors in one derivate, causing aliasing
- when Image texture option "Clip" was used, the imagetexture function
returned wrong value, causing the caller to create own normal based on
color (zero!).
- Mipmapped bump now also interpolates the samples (never did this...)
Shift+ctrl+A "Apply deformation" didn't work anymore, since we got the
Modifier stack. I've inserted a notice there for now, to point users to
the proper buttons.
Uninitialized 'alpha' flag in Image texture could cause render errors.
Didn't show in OSX though... (stupid system here inits stack to zero).
But, Ken Hughes found this, so all credits are for him!
Using the MMB constraint chooser in Transform, accidentally printed the
setting from the orientation menu (Local, View, Normal).
Martin: not sure if this a solid fix... the print now looks fine, but the
code isn't nicer this way. :) (just a one liner change though!).
For anyone who is interested in boxpacking the logic isnt
that complex and lscm could benifit from using it.
Archimap will use this rather then having the boxpacker inline.
