Converts SVG no STL to depthmap. #1

Hi this appears to use an SVG as opposed to STL as the input.

Thanks for pointing that out. Yes, this is designed to work with the SVG output from slic3r to build a depth map from really any 3d model that slic3r can process.

When I wrote the tool, all of the sliced layers were part of the same SVG, so this tool moved through the layers to build a depth map that could be used by any software that expected that format, like some CNC machines and laser cutters.

Probably want to rename the repository. Thanks.
