Yes, I just read your post, and would say that they are somewhat
related. Quite a coincident!
Your function takes two (or more) 4-4edge primitives and connects them
with quads, to create a "pipe" like object.
My function takes two arbitrary connected curves made up of type-2
lines and fills in the space between the vertex pairs on the two
curves. The type-2 curves may very well be inlined 4-4edge
primitives, in which case our programs do the same thing, or they may
be something else. I've had the use for a program like this many
times (e.g. when making the 2854.DAT Technic Crankshaft Centre) to do
the tedious work of simply filling in quads between two lines.
