// Recursively defines a sphereflake of arbitrary complexity.
// Change the SFLevel value below to control the complexity of the sphereflake.
//
// This scene can be animated, by e.g. using '+kff29' to generate 30 frames.
// The animation consists of the child sphereflakes rotating around the
// axes defined by their center point and their parent's center point.
//
// The recursion is done by recursively including sphrflak.inc.
// Since there is no notion of private data, the state of all data must
// be restored to its original calling value when a level of recursion
// is finished.
//
// "Parameters":
// SFLevel - level of recursion; recurses/decrements until 0 is reached
// SFCen - point that current sphereflake level is centered at
// SFRad - radius of current parent sphere
// SFUp - unit vector around which the child spheres are oriented
// SFRight - unit vector perpendicular to SFUp
// SFRot - rotational value for animations (in degrees)
