!!!Overview
This Maya Plug-in exports the entire Maya scene into an Ogre3d ((DotScene)) file. It supports lights, 
cameras, transformation, and entities. The plug-in assumes the Maya scene is composed of
references, and exports each reference as a separate entity. It uses the reference names as .mesh 
names in the entity tag. Hierarchy within the references is also supported.

!!!Usage
exportDotScene "d:/output.scene"

!!!Building from source
In order to build the plug-in, you need TinyXML (and the Maya API, of course). After building the project, copy the mll file to your Maya Plug-ins dir, and run the command.
