Oops =p
the macro:)
#macro Rec (current) //define macro
sphere { <0,0,0>, 0.75 pigment {rgb
0.5} //macro component
translate <0,current*0.125,0>
//squash by 0.125
rotate 55*current*z //wrap the
compact line into spiral
}
#if(current < Max-1) //if current
< max recursion
Rec(current+1) //recursion and
increment
#end //if
#end //mcro

That's the limit of recursive macros. You'll have to use a loop instead
of recursion if you want to go further. Something like this:-
#macro Rec (Max)// Parameter is now the number of spheres required
#local current=0;
#while (current < Max-1)
sphere { <0,0,0>, 0.75 pigment {rgb 0.5}
translate <0,current*0.125,0>
rotate 55*current*z
}
#declare current = current+1;
#end //while
#end //macro
Rec(300)
