[Therion] A couple of Therion updates: KML and line-rope

[Martin Sluka]

There is a repository of therion on github: https://github.com/therion/test

I spoke today with Martin Budaj and coerced him to change the status of this repository from test to regular.

You can control whether the rebelay rope loops are shown with the option "-rebelays on/off" and the anchor points with "-anchors on/off"
