Thanks. I've seen some of that, but it looks like they use the upper 
half-plane model for visualization (while my preference is for Poincare 
disk). Also, I want to do other geometric constructions/visualizations in 
Sage (see attached pics) for which commands to create segments, then get 
perpentidular bisecting lines  or angle trisectors, would make life much 
easier. (I did this in Sage, but had to work from scratch.)
