+% If you're concerned that the cpu in your PostScript printer will atrophy
+% from disuse, here is another Escher-like contribution to to keep it busy
+% for a while. It uses PostScript color commands, but will still work on
+% a monochrome printer (but isn't very pretty in black & white).
+%
+% The butterflies are arranged in a hexagonal grid (wallpaper group p6),
+% and the moveto, lineto, curveto commands used to render the tesselation
+% are redefined so as to impose a nonlinear transform that shrinks the
+% infinite plane to an ellipse. This is a sleazy way to mimic Escher's
+% "circle limit" sorts of things.
+%
+% The butterfly permimeter was made by imposing all the symmetry constraints
+% on a path, and then that path was filled in using Adobe Illustrator
+%
+% The routines Xform and next_color are easy to change if you want to hack
+% with them. The code was written to sacrifice efficiency for readability.
