[Bf-committers] OpenGL python export script (improved)

[Campbell Barton]

Hi Updated this script so its accsessable from the menu with 
fileselector: OpenGL (.c)...
Better string formatting...
Operates on selection (Object.Get() is evil since it operates on objects 
accross multiple scenes)
much cleaner and only gets data once per mesh.

No Major changes, just more tidy
