David,
i'm sorry, but i don't understand what the code does. Obviously, it
would help
if i knew Postscript ;) but unfortunately i don't have time to learn
it now.
The most important resource is PLRM.pdf (available on Adobe's website,
though the location changes).
Since i suppose that quite a few devs may be in a similar situation, i
think
that adding some comments would be a good idea, even if they were
completely
obvious for people knowing PostScript.
There is a reason this file is commented sparingly: it appears in
every PostScript file produced by LilyPond.
PostScript is a rather idiosyncratic language, so one can't really
replace knowing the language with liberal amounts of commenting.
By the way: do i understand correctly that a rounded rectangle is
created as two objects - a "sharp" rectangle and a "rounded" line
around it?
There is no such things as a "rounded" line, but the corner join style
might be producing circles.
At any rate, this kind of rendition is only used when all of width,
height, and corner diameter are non-zero. And calling painting
operations "objects" is a somewhat strange view.
