This doesn't seem to work. Try using the following instead:
\psline(!4.9 lograd RadToDeg PtoC)(!5.2 lograd RadToDeg PtoC)

You need to use ! to plot use computed values:
\SpecialCoor
\multido{\i=0+1}{10}{
\pstVerb{%
/lograd 10 def %
}
\psline(!4.9; lograd)(!5.2; lograd)
}

превиет!
I am working myself through the magic of sliderules right now and want
to spend some thoughts on rebuilding one. I think that labeling should
be done precisely therefore by PSTricks (or maybe something else?).
Now I started to map 1..10 to 0..360 of a circle to draw tickmarks in a
log-fashion. My idea is (1st iteration):
$f(x)=-\frac{\ln(x)\times360}{\ln(10)}$ $D_f=[0..10]\subset\mathbf{N}$
So where do I go wrong?
%% /lograd \i\space ln -360 mul 10 ln div def
Even a "simple number" isnt doing it and throwing "! Bad number: `lograd´."
TIA,
Carsten
