Alright then, I'll aim to release the include file shortly, after
implementing a few more things.

Thanks, it was easier than explaining it all with words :)
Attached is a picture to show how making tessellating patterns with an
object pigment is possible with my hexPattern() macro. I created a
simple macro which allows one to navigate trigonal space. The screen
overlay shows this space, which is just a square grid skewed to 60
degrees. The shape was designed in Illustrator (paper would work just as
well), and I typed out the coordinates in POV. It's a prism with 29
points, rotated three times by 120 degrees.
