Let me know if I understand this correctly. I see in the src that there is a file SYMBOLS.txt which is generated by the perl script mpost/genmpost.pl SYMBOLS.txt has in it the following: [Area symbols] bedrock: SKBB blocks: SKBB clay: SKBB debris: SKBB UIS dimensions: SKBB ice: SKBB pebbles: SKBB sand: UIS snow: SKBB sump: UIS water: UIS The above are compiled into the therion executable in some way so that therion knows about those area symbols. If I want to override one of the above area symbols with my own metapost code I can do that by including the metapost code in thconfig. But if the area symbol is not in the list above I can't just create metapost code for say "a_something_ASF" as therion will not know about it even if it's in thconfig. Is that right? PS. It does not worry me if there is no option in xtherion GUI for selecting say an area 'flowstone' if I have an a_flowstone_ASF, as I can select say clay for an area and then edit the th2 file file with vim and change clay to flowstone. -- Mike Lake Caver, Linux enthusiast and interested in anything technical.
