>>grid maker…
Good, and you are most welcome! As creator of the whale image (that I often
display on my spare machine for inspiration) you are hereby granted priority
for any wishes or suggestions for making the thing more useful.
>>1st grid took two hours…
I understand! When faced with making a single grid, I figured it would be
easier (and a lot more fun) to write a program than to build the grid manually.
Then, when I (inevitably) wanted to change it a little, it would be no problem.
As it turned out, it was fairly simple to write, even though I hadn't done any
POCO programming in at least a year.
(One thing you might want to do immediately: edit the program and zap the silly
opening message by deleting the "char zs[]…" and "Qtext(zs)" statements.)
Hope to see you (and your whale in action) at Siggraph.
