[Feature Request] Allowing user to select a STL model for use in the quaternion chart #39

Hi, I absolutely love this software and appreciate the time and effort you spent in developing and improving it for so many years! So firstly, a massive thank you.

The quaternion chat is a great feature that I expect to use a lot to visual the orientation of my robots quickly and easily. Could you please add the ability to select an STL model from disk when creating the chart so that more relevant 3D models can be used (especially for professional demos)? Since I don't know any Java I'm not confident in editing the source code myself but I did find the monkey.stl file being read into the code on line 51 of src/OpenGLQuaternionChart.java. Is it enough if I change that to some other STL file that I place in "resources/" to be able to use a different model in quaternion graphs? If so, how do I build the project into a JAR file after that change? Thank you.

Kind Regards, Vishal
