Macro Half turn stairs

Description
This Macro creates a half turning Stair with the design of stairs.dat file left or right turning.



Usage

 * Copy and save the Data as file stairs.dat in your macro directory, see below Data (stairs.dat) code.


 * Launch the macro and change the height of Stair to the hight of your floor. The turning can be left or right.

 * 3) Author: Berner and Forum
 * 4) This macro creates a half turn stair from tupels of x,y,z
 * 5) the tupels used to create a dwire for every stair.
 * 6) The dwire is extruded, so it give with 18 stairs the total rise
 * 7) A sample file with parameters is in stairs.dat
 * 8) created a wire with coordinate x y z separated (in the file)
