In povray.binaries.images I threw out a picture of a rug.
(some of you may have seen it)

    The rug is of the "throw-rug" variety...however...right now
it has this shape.......

I need to make it oval....

                                               \                    /
                                                 \               /


I could just whip out some CSG but I cannot think of a shape
that I could use as the "cookie-cutter"  (I'm probably just mising
the whole thing in the help somewhere)
Anybody have any ideas?

p.s  no ridicule on the ascii art!!!  <grin>

Please, just a little ridicule?  Just a jab at the fact that you were using
a proportional font?  Just a little one?  Oh.  Well, okay then.

His art was not in HTML. *You're* the one who isn't using monospace.

  Does this look to you like it was made with a monospaced font?

  And yes, my xterm uses a monospaced font.

Where did I say anything about HTML?

And I assure you I am using a monospace font.  For some reason it's the only
kind of font my ssh client supports...
