Hi jr,

not faint at the sight of a #while but of (a) 35 years WHILE I've been missing
crucial things in Povray :-)).

Being a _bloody_user_only (starting with Povray 2.? and Moray 1.5, MS DOS
versions) now 'wasted WHILE time' strikes back.

I feel like Ingo got me by the 'short hair': I am able to use a macro (most of
the times), sometimes adapt something (happy when it works, if not: depressed),
understanding the concept (sometimes - more or less - not 'word by word') but
separating positions and angles for 3D / creating a LIFO array - that's way
beyond me.

I'll try to do my best but to cover that gap is a huge thing. At least I could
add something to Ingo's code to produce the 'Pentaplexity' (still crude using
Ingo's words).

Thanks for cheering me up

Cheers, Droj
