	Perhaps too long - I'm not sure I even know what you mean by runtime
evaluated functions...

	In any case, I don't need Bessel functions to evaluate shapes, but
rather positions and motions (it'll be an animation).

	If I misunderstood, feel free to correct me.

	Worst case, I just won't do it.

	If I'm really motivated, I'll write a script in a language that does
have Bessel functions (e.g. Python) to create the scene files one by one
for each frame. It'll be a pain, and I don't really need it for work, so
I'll see what happens.

	I just thought I'd request it because it has been requested before, and
I suspect it'll take little effort to provide some support - I may be wrong.
