Well, I played with it more, and I now learned 4 points are enough.
I just thought if I had more points, I'd have better points, but I guess I can do 
fine by telling calc_spline() the number of points I need.

Well, first of all, the reason I posted here, was because I didn't make up the 
splines functions.  It was from Allegro.  So, I had a certain right to post here.
Next, I don't know jack about splines, and I figured I'd get a proper reply from 
this group.   And I did.

Well, THANKS!
Bye!
