Virtual trackball to rotate the view of a 3-D plot interactively.

Hi Tobias. I think your code is a step in the right direction. Is it possible to speed up the response of the trackball? It is very sluggish in the worked example.

Missing the following dependent functions:
normr(), normc().
The function is unusable without these.
