A am aware that they are greek symbols. I simply didn't have a
handy reference to their decriptions, english names, and mathmatical
equivelent functions they represent when I copied them to my
"Do it someday" file.
I did try them in M3D
http://mcn.simplenet.com/graphics/3d/m3d/default.htm
but it only allows 2d eqautions and they definatly did not work as
expected with the few hacks I attempted to use to get them to work.
I don't have the iso patch here and I still haven't gotten the hang of
the Superpatch yet, assuming it has that covered. Perhaps some day...
