LazyCam (BETA)

As LazyCam development has ceased while still in the Beta stage, there are no "official" written docs available for using it. The training videos and forum posts should be enough to get most people savvy enough to run Beta level software started. Also, there are user-written manuals for LazyCam and LazyTurn available on the Members Docs board of the forum (requires registration to access the board).
