Hello maurice,

This is very interesting. I'm not able to understand all the code 
actually but it
 will be a very insteresting and instructive example

My question about the script in ruby is to complete my last packages
 and documentations with some independent files. It' to help the readers
 with some ready examples. The reader has only to compile the example
 and the name of the example corresponding to the section, subsection of
 the doc.
Obviously, the packages are about tikz ! (euclidean geometry and functions)

No but now I found : /usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/scripts/context/ruby/
 and it's very interesting. Thanks!

For Maurice :   http://www.ensta.fr/~diam/ruby/  looks very fine and 
"c'est en fran�ais" !!!
