Hello again all,
While in the process of trying to make things act together, i'm trying to
"group" 20 spheres so I can rotate/translate them with one command. What
sort of syntax am I looking at for this?
I've had a look at the documentation for #declare and object but they don't
seem to be what I'm after.
Any help, as always, greatly appreciated

Try "union"

True,
The problem is, I'm still trying to think in programming terms ie objects
and instances which seems great in theory (and should help me in future) -
the only problem is, I'm not 100% with getting my head around things like
while loops inside definitions
I'm fairly sure once I get the hang of this it should be a lot easier than
I'm making it.
I'm currently working on a cube of spheres that rotates/explodes/etc.... and
is loopable. I'll post it in alt.binaries when I've finished my pshere on a
checkered plain.

Think of it as a preprocessing step which just performs textual
replacements in your source code. Not sure how it is actually
implemented, but the resulting behavior seems to be like that.

Yep - that's the way i went, As I come form a webby backround, it's like
server-side / client-side :)
