Formula Box Command Options
Command Specifications
- only one command per line
- a command is the only thing that can be on a line, ie if the line starts with a [, it must end with a ]
- comment lines will begin with # (only applicable in gcs files)
- parameters that contain a colon ':' must be surrounded by quotes "".  Eg. [Xmax="frand(2:5)"]
- commands will be enclosed in square brackets [ ]
- syntax for command:  [command=param 1:param 2:param 3: … :param n]
Notes
For polar mode, replace x's and y's with t's and r's respectively
