Just in case you are curious how lsys3.pov looks like.

try: #for (i, 0, strlen(Lstr)) in the macro. The it runs and renders a small

Try this.
Your pop and push macros didn't return anything.

Hi,
Gee, I didn't want to open a new rabbit hole for you.
I tried your code and yes: the image DOES look strange.
It seems like the whole thing stops after 1 iteration not knowing where to go
next or what to do next.
But at least Povray does not complain anymore.
I suppose you cannot borrow me your 'muse with the glass eye' for a moment or
two just to find out what's wrong with my push and pop macros.
I promise I'm shaven and like to photograph.
See how this thing we are talking about should look like.
Thanks for your patience
Droj

Next thing to do is to debug the stack content and the vertices content.
Where it probably goes wrong:
The first point is added to the array and from then on only the "end points"
(last endpoint is next start point). But when branching you need a new start
point. That gets confusing. It is probably better to write [startpoint,
endpoint] to the array. The loop it with a stride of 2.

fwiw, I really like(d) 'lsys3'. made me think that it is v close to a Hilbert
Curve, and it'd be interesting to find the right "production rules" for that.

Hi,
yes indeed looks similar to Hilbert curve. If I remember correctly it's called
Peano curve and here is Hilbert curve.
I saw your screenshot of debugging the stack/vertices content and it looks like
the whole thing loops in itself.
Axiom and production rule(s) look okay but the 'turtle' seems to be stuck in a
tar pit.
At the moment I have no idea how to get rid of the glitch. I tried using a
vector expression for the angles but Povray simply shut down.
regards, Droj
PS: Could you let me know how you debugged the stack getting a list of contents?
