// Module: line_of()
//
// Description:
// Evenly distributes `n` copies of all children along a line.
// Copies every child at each position.
//
// Usage:
// line_of(l, [n], [p1]) ...
// line_of(l, spacing, [p1]) ...
// Usage: Spread `n` copies by a given spacing
// line_of(spacing, [n], [p1]) ...
// Usage: Spread copies every given spacing along the line
// line_of(spacing, l, [p1]) ...
// Usage: Spread `n` copies along the length of the line
// line_of(l, [n], [p1]) ...
// Usage: Spread `n` copies along the line from `p1` to `p2`
// line_of(p1, p2, [n]) ...
// Usage: Spread copies every given spacing, centered along the line from `p1` to `p2`
// line_of(p1, p2, spacing) ...
//
// Description:
// Copies `children()` at one or more evenly spread positions along a line. By default, the line
// will be centered at the origin, unless the starting point `p1` is given. The line will be
// pointed towards `RIGHT` (X+) unless otherwise given as a vector in `l`, `spacing`, or `p1`/`p2`.
// The spread is specified in one of several ways:
// .
// If You Know... | Then Use Something Like...
// -------------------------------- | --------------------------------
// Spacing distance, Count | `line_of(spacing=10, n=5) ...` or `line_of(10, n=5) ...`
// Spacing vector, Count | `line_of(spacing=[10,5], n=5) ...` or `line_of([10,5], n=5) ...`
// Spacing distance, Line length | `line_of(spacing=10, l=50) ...` or `line_of(10, l=50) ...`
// Spacing distance, Line vector | `line_of(spacing=10, l=[50,30]) ...` or `line_of(10, l=[50,30]) ...`
// Spacing vector, Line length | `line_of(spacing=[10,5], l=50) ...` or `line_of([10,5], l=50) ...`
// Line length, Count | `line_of(l=50, n=5) ...`
// Line vector, Count | `line_of(l=[50,40], n=5) ...`
// Line endpoints, Count | `line_of(p1=[10,10], p2=[60,-10], n=5) ...`
// Line endpoints, Spacing distance | `line_of(p1=[10,10], p2=[60,-10], spacing=10) ...`
//
// Arguments:
// p1 = Starting point of line.
// p2 = Ending point of line.
// l = Length to spread copies over.
// spacing = A 3D vector indicating which direction and distance to place each subsequent copy at.
// spacing = Either the scalar spacing distance along the X+ direction, or the vector giving both the direction and spacing distance between each set of copies.
// n = Number of copies to distribute along the line. (Default: 2)
// l = Either the scalar length of the line, or a vector giving both the direction and length of the line.
// p1 = If given, specifies the starting point of the line.
// p2 = If given with `p1`, specifies the ending point of line, and indirectly calculates the line length.
//
// Side Effects:
// `$pos` is set to the relative centerpoint of each child copy, and can be used to modify each child individually.
// `$idx` is set to the index number of each child being copied.
//
// Example(FlatSpin):
// line_of([0,0,0], [5,5,20], n=6) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// Examples:
// line_of(l=40, n=6) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// line_of(l=[15,30], n=6) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// line_of(l=40, spacing=10) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// line_of(spacing=[5,5,0], n=5) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// Example:
// line_of(10) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(10, n=5) sphere(d=1);
// line_of([10,5], n=5) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(spacing=10, n=6) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(spacing=[10,5], n=6) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(spacing=10, l=50) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(spacing=10, l=[50,30]) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(spacing=[10,5], l=50) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(l=50, n=4) sphere(d=1);
// line_of(l=[50,-30], n=4) sphere(d=1);
// Example(FlatSpin):
// line_of(p1=[0,0,0], p2=[5,5,20], n=6) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// Example(FlatSpin):
// line_of(p1=[0,0,0], p2=[5,5,20], spacing=6) cube(size=[3,2,1],center=true);
// Example: All Children are Copied at Each Spread Position
// line_of(l=20, n=3) {
// cube(size=[1,3,1],center=true);
// cube(size=[3,1,1],center=true);
