Richmond,
I wrote this Turtle Graphics library in the dark ages of RR, before
?sum? became a reserved word.
So, comment out the ?sum? handler in the stack script.

Having copied your stack script across into my stack I am stuck with 2
problems:
1. How to make the line to show as 'pd' [penDown] doesn't seem to work.
2. How to exchange your graphic "turtleGraphic" for an img.
In all other respects the thing is super!
Richmond.
Actually my "big" problem at the moment is, with this script:
on right dangl
rt dangl
end right
on rt dangl
subtract dangl from angl
drawTurtle
end rt
on drawTurtle
myWait waitTime
if noDraw then exit drawturtle
put 5 into distance
put round(x0 +x)&comma& round(-y+y0) & return into gPoints
put distance * cos(radPerDeg * angl) into dx
put dx into fld "dx"
put distance * sin(radPerDeg * angl) into dy
put dy into fld "dy"
put round(x+x0+dx)&comma&round(-y+y0-dy) after gPoints
set points of graphic "turtleGraphic" to gPoints
set the angle of img "turt" to ((the angle of img "turt") - angl)
end drawTurtle
with the graphic "turtleGraphic" and the img "turt" initially pointing
in the same direction,
why they don't go on pointing in the same direction everytime I send
"right 45" via the message box?
Richmond.

Hi Richmond,
I suspect the problem your are having is that the turtle has to initiated before he will respond.
Try this script in a button as see if it draw a line, shows the arrow pointing
in the direction of the next move and then repeats.
The result should be a square 100 units on a side.
on mouseUp
startTurtle
showturtle
repeat 4 times
fd 100
lt 90
wait 50 ticks
end repeat
choose the browse tool
end mouseUp
Jim
Yesd, it is, and it is my bl**dy silly fault that I fired off that
e-mail before I did a bit more digging and sorted the whole thing out.
Richmond.
