MainControl.h
Written by Matthew Fisher

MainControl includes everything that changes often between applications, such as what meshes to load,
and also determines what is rendered each frame.

This specific mesh class demonstates many things.  Firstly, it uses a CreateCylinder function to render
a bendy tube following an arbitrary function.  Secondly, it demonstrates using multiple cameras in one scene.
Thirdly, it uses an Indicator class to simplifying drawing spheres, cylinders, and cameras.  The Indicator class
draws the other camera (the one you're not looking through) and the position, normal, tangent, and torsion vectors
along the spring curve mesh.  It also demonstrates capturing the screen (press P.)
