after a black window pops up press enter for full detail rendering or p for the fast preview

Since the subject specifies that image has to be recalculated only only on our request, it is necessarry to press enter or p every time the camera (k) or an object (o) have been moved (w, a, s, d, q, c keys) or rotated (arrow keys, right ctrl and num 0).

Keyboard:

    - enter   - render full detail (slow)
    - p       - preview (low detail, fast rendering)
    - m       - show/hide menu
    - wasd    - move object/camera, q and c for z-axis
    - arrows  - rotate objrect/camera, right-ctrl and num0 for z-axis

    - tab     - switch between objects
    - k       - switch to camera
