An Adobe Illustrator L-System script through Scriptographer

Apparently I put too much text in this field as it does not display all of it. Text has instead been put in as a header of the file explaining how to use the script.
Meanwhile you can get a quick introduction here:

Early version, though. A bit crude but I hope it works!

- The draw command no longer iterates the grammar any further if called more than once.
- Some cleaning-up in the code department
Hey Håkan,
If you looked at my Paperjs code on Phyllotaxis you'll notice where I got the original algorithm for the arangement.
Is it forbidden within this community to learn the same topics / write our own interpetations?
Hi David,
of course it is not forbidden! I'm not accusing you of anything here!
All this is open source so do with it as you like. I guess you know as well as I do that the proper thing to do is credit someone if one where to use someone else's code.
Which I'm NOT saying you are.
The reason I came to your site was that 'Some Dude' had expressed a wish to have a GUI for my L-System. Your script has that, so it is probably easier to work with than mine therefore I just wanted to point him in the right direction.
I have not, and probably will not, look at your phyllotaxis code. Wherever your inspiration comes from is really none of my business, I just pointed it out the coincidence. No need to feel slighted!
My best,
Håkan
Hi Håkan,
Sorry if I came across too coarse on the previous comment.
I definitely agree with you on the above, and it was nice of you to refer him that way knowing he needed that feature.
Thanks,
David.
