Description : Tapered helix sweep. Colour the edges of a triangle model, scale it by 0.5 (-S 0.5), progressively translate it 2 to 1 units on the x-axis (-T '2*(1-FRAC),0,0'), progressively translate it 5 to 0 units on the y-axis (-T 0,5*FRAC,0), progressively rotate it 10 turns around the y-axis (-R 0,10*ANG,0). Note that maths expressions using special characters lie '(' may need the option argument to be surrounded by quotes, or escaped in some other way.
