Sure. Quoting myself:

<snip>
I am writing macros to do linear mouldings as well as collumns
relief, so I am after a general solution. But if you want, I can post or
email what I have already done. The file isn't very long, but is written
in a kind of franglais, with architectural terms my dictionnary can't
translate.

Do you want me to email it to you? (I'd prefer that to posting it, as
it is not finished yet, with no exemples and no explanations).


Renderingly,

Philippe
