I think ease or difficulty depends on which tools you use
to author parts.

I use Notepad (NOTEPAD.EXE), until the DAT file gets too huge,
whereupon I use WordPad (WORDPAD.EXE) to continue editing the file.
I use a calculator and scratch paper (to do a rough sketch and
to keep notes of important locations).

Whenever I need to see how my code looks, I (usually) use L3Lab,
but only to render the file (not to edit the file)...

For a pen-and-paper kind of author, what's involved in BFC-ing
a file?  Please explain, "keep track of the winding."

Thanks!
