Although I have a decent scene that uses Martijn Steinrucker's hexagon pattern,
I tried to implement the hexagon patterns from POV-Ray's source code.
I got Jerome Grimbert's hexagonal tiling version to _almost_ work, and failed
miserably with the "simple" hexagon pattern - probably due to the complex
coloring code which uses some nested #switch blocks. Challenging stuff to
convert to functions.
Anyway, here's the simple scene code making a prism.
Maybe if anyone has experience making some of these pattern types, they could
post some tutorial material to explain the reasoning behind some of the
functions.
