<sigh> Sorry, brain not in gear

so once you're rebooted, you can figure out the logic behind this:

linecap := butt ; linejoin := beveled ;

This doesn't result in the desired output I want.

or even

pickup pensquare rotated -60 scaled (1/sqrt(2)) ; linecap := 1 ;

I played with custom pens but failed to create a working triangle pen. I'll take another look into it because a few custom pens can draw all lines. Wolfgang
