I released my program to create celtic knotwork patterns (aka 
Gordian knots). It's in a binary form for LINUX (compiled with 
SuSE 6.3) only (sorry Win32 and source will follow but my time 
is very short at the moment).

You can find it at:

http://www.ica.uni-stuttgart.de/~marc/gordian.html

together with a short description of how it works. I hope you 
can use it and would be very glad to hear from you all the good 
and bad things you have to mention.

Happy Raytracing,

Marc

LINUX grumble ONLY grumble grumble. Well (grumble) that excludes
(grumble) about 80% (grumble) of the (grumble) worlds (grumble)
computer (grumble) users (grumble)(grumble).

I'll do my best but ...
first I have to rewrite some parts because of the lousy style I had used
that the g++ compiled without complaints while other did not.
Second I'll have to bring the borland commandline compiler for WIN32 to
compile the fltk library and then the program itself.
And to complicate things I'll have to apply for a new job which is
eating up most of my free time at the moment :-(.
Any good paying POYRAY jobs out there? <g>

If somebody would help me compiling the fltk library and the program for
WIN32 (VISUAL C++ would be useful...there are existing project files for
fltk) things could be speed up. The rewriting would just take a fews
hours. Any volunteers <g>.

Have you considered compiling it with cygwin?  It might just work without
a rewrite.  If you want to email me the source, I can try to build it and
let you know how it goes.

I don't know that much about programming, but you may want to try DJGPP.
It's a 32-bit DOS port of the GNU compiler for Linux, but AFAIK you can make
Windows programs with it too, so you may not have to rewrite anything.

  Oh, please! Not again!

  Repeat after me: UNIX, UNIX, UNIX, UNIX, UNIX...

  Repeat this mantra 100 times.

  gcc is a compiler compiler for almost all UNIX operating systems.
  It is NOT a compiler exclusive to Linux.

  Please, don't use the word "Linux" where you should use the word "Unix".
Thank you.
