Subject: RiLine "wraps"

RiLine(), in "Quick Renderman", as implemented on the NeXT, forms a  
periodic polyline.  That is, the first point given is also used as the  
last point.

A closed quadrilateral is created by 4 points.  3 points always produces  
a triangle.  It is not visible, but I assume that 2 points forms a  
polyline that has two (indentical) segments.

I don't want this behavior.  Is there some switch?

Any and all replies appreciated.
