OK, this means I can't use \psPoint to calculate a varying basepoint for the vector.
But I want to use a multido to draw the vector(s) at many points. Is the only way to do this
to explicitly write the formula for the point in terms of the parameters of \multido everywhere
the point appears?
Can \psPoint be replaced by a defFunction?
On a related note, how does one use defFunction (or another command)
to define a real-valued function, and then use its output in calculating
coordinates of points or components of vectors in pst3d-solides?
