I got over the initial hurdles of learning Cairo and figuring out
basically how I should structure my code to work with it, and now
I've got about half of the VisualID `generators' working: radial,
spiral, line, figure, and scribble; I'm still working on the
`along a path', `around a shape', `relaxed inside', and
`symmetry' generators. Oh--Pam has also asked that I add a
`butterfly' generator, but I wonder if some butterflies might just
fall out of the existing shape-grammar. On a test-run, I was
pleasantly surprised to find that the randomly-generated icon for
one of my files was... a turtle?
