Creates a line between two or more points.
line Point_1 Point_2 Point_3
Creates a line from Point_1 to Point_2 and another line from Point_2 to Point_3.
line Point_5 (1 2) Point_6
Creates a line from Point_5 to coordinates (1, 2) and from that point another line to Point_6.
line (1 0) (9 4) (8 6) Point_8
Creates a line from coordinates (1, 0) to coordinates (9, 4), from that point another line to coordinates (8, 6) and from that point another line to Point_8.

Creates one or more lines by either giving absolute coordinates or relative coordinates, by giving the angle with respect to the xy-plane and a length or a vector describing the direction and a length.
line 1 2 "relative" 3 4
Creates a line from a new point with coordinates (1, 2) to another new point which is 3 in the x- and 4 in the y-direction from the first point at (4, 6).
line Point_1 "relative" 3 4 -5 -9 "angles" 30 16
Creates a line from Point_1 (1, 2) to a new point which is 3 in the x- and 4 in the y-direction from the first point at (4, 6). From that new point a line is created to another new point which is -5 in the x- and -9 in the y-direction from the previous point at (-1, -3). From that point a new line is created which has an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the xy-plane and a length of 16. This line ends at coordinates (12.86, 5).
line (1 2) "angles" 45 10 "absolute" (4 5)
Creates a line from a new point with coordinates (1, 2) which has an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the xy-plane and a length of 10. Then creates a line from the end point of the first line to a new point with coordinates (4, 5).
line (1 2) "angles" 45 10 "vector" (8 2) 14
Creates a line from a new point with coordinates (1, 2) which has an angle of 45 degrees with respect to the xy-plane and a length of 10. Then creates a line from the end point of the first line in direction (8, 2) with a length of 14.
