I didn't have a lot of time when I was trying to find what I was looking for.

I think if you're able to locate (or someone can post a link to) Chris Colefax's
spline macros - my understanding is that there was all of that kind of stuff in
there as well.

I've never used any of these macros, and my memory tells me that the good macros
had something to do with a rollercoaster animation....

It's possible I might have some of these Colefax macros squirreled away
somewhere.
Won't have the opportunity to dig around for them and post until maybe Sunday.

We also really ought to have a thread where ALL of the Colefax macros are listed
and posted as attachments, and then they can be collected into a single zip so
that they aren't lost.
