I have this in my library. It uses a function from BOSL2.
module moveSP(r, theta, phi) {
move(spherical_to_xyz(r, theta, phi)) children();
}

I have a situation where it would be helpful to be able to specify a
transformation as a distance and a direction, say as a rotation about
the Z axis from the positive X axis, for example. Is there such a tool
in OpenSCAD?
I looked on the cheat sheet and one didn't pop out at me, but I wondered
if I might have missed it.
Thanks
