Adding functions won't make it a mess, they would all use the same 
syntax. And for the other "programming" features, only variables, 
if-else, and while are really necessary, although for, do-while, and 
switch-case would be useful. Embedding BASIC into the POV language would 
be much more of a mess, especially if other data types(vector, color) 
are supported and if variables declared outside the function are to be 
used.
