Okay, imagine the following code.

#declare myspline = spline{spline stuff...}

sphere{<0,0,0>,1
Spline_Trans(myspline,.5, y, .1, 0);
}

With me do far? That'll place a sphere at the .5 posisition on the spline.

The funtion I desire, called like, say, the following:
magic_func(<0,0,0,>,myspline,.5,y,.1,0) would return the same same point the
sphere ends up at.

The final goal is something like this:

cylinder{
magic_func(<2,0,0,>,myspline,pos,y,.1,0),magic_func(<2,0,0,>,myspline,pos+.01,y,.1,0),1
}
