No. In fact, iTools uses a completely different graphics system
(object graphics) than you typically use at the command line
(direct graphics), and the two are not at all compatible. (They
even require different kinds of graphics windows, and you can't
mix one with the other.)
Most people find iTools far too complex to program, although
writing programs that use the object graphics system is not
that hard, and is absolutely required if you want to do
something in 3D.
Cheers,
