ComChan v0.6.0 Release Notes

1. Hardware-Accelerated 3D Telemetry
Integrated RGP support for the Ratty terminal. Run with --features ratty for high-performance, shaded 3D object rendering.

2. Stationary Global Reference Frame
Added a persistent X/Y/Z axis triad (gnomon) that overlays the 3D dashboard, providing a constant spatial reference while your telemetry data rotates the model.

3. Graceful Rendering Fallback
The application now automatically detects your terminal environment. If running in standard emulators (WezTerm, Kitty, etc.) or if compiled without the ratty flag, it automatically switches to a high-speed CPU Braille wireframe engine.

4. GPU Resource Management
Fixed the "frozen cube" bug when switching tabs. The rendering engine now explicitly clears the GPU buffer when navigating to the 2D plotter tab, preventing visual artifacts from bleeding into your charts.

5. Installation Commands

# Standard installation (CPU Braille Engine)
cargo install comchan

# Installation with Hardware-Accelerated 3D support (Ratty Terminal)
cargo install comchan --features ratty
