  You'll have to ask Nathan. I don't know anything about the inside_vector
thing. I just copied the inside_vector reading code from his patch.

  Thinking about it, perhaps it could be better to put the tesselation
inside the mesh block as you suggest. The tesselation routine would just
add the triangles to the mesh.
  This way it would be possible to make everything you can make to a mesh
without having to copy any code.
  It would also allow tesselating several objects into one mesh and even
add individual triangles to it.

  I'm liking your idea. It shouldn't be extremely difficult to implement
either.

  Perhaps something like:

mesh
{ triangle { ... }
  smooth_triangle { ... }
  tesselate
  { OBJECT
    [accuracy VECTOR]
    [smooth]
    [offset FLOAT]
  }
  OBJECT_MODIFIERS
}

  Thinking about it, it wouldn't be difficult at all to implement that.
Instead of expecting a 'tesselate' keyword at general level it's enough
to expect it inside Parse_Mesh().

  Btw, the tesselation code has some strange bug right now which I'm unable
to find. Damn it.
