- Show hour-glass when making long operations (before progress when rendering...)
5
- Better sphere implementation (remember transformation thing...)
8
- Remember file extension.

Structures are specified in EisenScript (named after the russian film director Sergei Eisenstein).
105
EisenScript is processed by the Eisenstein Engine by the following steps:
106
1) Preprocessor (strips comments imports '#include' statements).
107
2) Tokenizer (divides string input into symbols. The string input is split at any white space (except if it occurs inside quotes).)
108
3) Parser (standard recursive descent parser). The parser creates a 'ruleset' from the text input.
109
4) Name resolving. Rules contain symbolic references to other rules. These symbols must be resolved.
111
The EBNF notation for EisenScript looks like this:
113
program = { set | rule } ;
114
rule = 'RULE' , rule_name , [ weight ] , '{' , { set | action } , '}' ;
115
action = { transformationloop } [transformationlist] rule_ref ;
116
transformationloop = number , '*' , transformationlist ;
117
transformationlist = '{' , { transformation } , '}';
118
transformation = 'X' , number | // translations
121
'RX', number | // rotation about axis
124
'S', number | // resizing (all axis equal)
125
'S', number number number, // resizing for x,y,z individually
127
set = 'SET' , var_name , string ;
129
'rule_ref', 'var_name', and 'string' are text strings with a reasonable set of allowed characters.
130
Though not strictly a part of the syntax, a few rules are provided as predefined primitives in Structure Synth:
137
line - along x axis, centered in y,z plane.
138
point - centered in coordinate system.
139
cylinder - the symmetry axis will be the current x axis.
140
pbox - continues box (will be drawn smoothly as the coordinate system transforms).
141
pcylinder- polygonal cylinder (will be drawn smoothly as the coordinate system transforms).
142
tube - (With number of division)
