  1.   COMMAND SMOOTH
  2. -----------------------------------------------------------------
  3.     Purpose: Smooth objects using a very complicated and slow algorithm
  4.              which produces incredible results.
  5.  
  6.              SCALE specifies the scale-factor of the spline-tangents,
  7.              a higher value results in a higher bend of the
  8.              interpolated curves.
  9.  
  10.              The parameter "noHalveSegs" turns off the interpolation of
  11.              difficult sections using splines - the points will be
  12.              created using lines instead 
  13.              (You should try to drag them by hand)
  14.  
  15.       Usage: SMOOTH(<objectID>,[<scale>],["noHalveSegs"])
  16.    Examples: smooth(1)
  17.              smooth(1,1.4)
  18.              smooth(1,noHalveSegs)
  19.              smooth(1,1.6,noHalveSegs)
  20.       Notes: 1. There is a limit of 72 faces (source-object) for 
  21.                 unregistered users
  22.              2. Subgroups and face-colors will be updated correctly, edges
  23.                 and points will be merged
  24.              3. This procedure was designed to work with the following 
  25.                 settings:
  26.                  SPLINETYPE=CATMULLROM
  27.                  SPLINEENDS=OPEN
  28.                  SPLINESUBDIV=20
