This is really beautiful. A few questions:

- how do I add and delete points on a path?

- how do I change the node type? Eg, if there are no handles, how do I get handles (antlers I think you call them in the code).

- How do I go from colinear handles to "broken" handles: handles that form an angle at the node, so I can have two different curves joined at an acute angle at one node?

- How do I do intersections, unions, groups, layers, etc?

But I gotta say it again, it's really beautiful...

Earlier quoted context omitted.

In, it doesn't.

1) Select an object 2) Select the rotate tool (whose icon is the universal symbol for "rotate" that can't possibly be confused with anything else) 3) Click once to define an origin 4) Click and drag to interactively rotate about that origin. This is how the Illustrator rotate tool has worked since, literally, Illustrator 1.0.

In Illustrator you don't have to do step 1 or 3.
