Doesn't matter!
I never really analyzed the existing (grass)macros (e.g. Gilles  Tran's),
and they may use the same technic, I don't know. I remember that I made a
small bamboo macro with only 1 jointed bamboo stalk which was repeated
continually, while rotated and scaled randomly within given boundaries. I
included even some wind effect. I must have it somewhere. I haven't used it
now for some years.

It is always nice to have something simple, working smoothly. Good work!
Thanks for sharing!

Thomas
