Re: [NTG-context] What was that 'rounding paths' metafun(?) function again?

Would sections 1.3, 1.18, 2.5 and 2.6 in the Metafun manual help?

I used what is in 1.3 (though I actually used Peter Grogono’s PDF MetaPost: A Reference Manual https://users.encs.concordia.ca/~grogono/Writings/mpref.pdf which I find the best educational document about plain METAPOST so far). 1.18 was what I was looking for but did not work in my situation (don’t know why, but it exploded). I fixed another issue (calling cornering on top of cornering when doing recursion) and that made my own macro behave perfectly civilised. I had looked at 2.5 and 2.6 but this was not required (nor of any use). G

I think I saw a function in MetaFun somehwre that you could give a ‘hard’ path, i.e. (0,0) -- (0,1) — (1,1) and it would become a path with nicely rounded (part of a circle) corners (still straight lines), but I can’t find it anymore. I wrote my own, but it is giving me headaches so I’d like to find something that is better than what I produce.
