`$currentline` and `$currentfile` (or variants) are easy when you're the C preprocessor and processing `__FILE__` and `__LINE__` at compile time. They are harder when you are the OpenSCAD interpreter and...

There's been some work done on PR#4538.

No, it's still open: https://github.com/openscad/openscad/pull/4538

With respect to lines versus shapes, see [OEP7: Mixed Dimension Geometry Support](https://github.com/openscad/openscad/wiki/OEP7%3A-Mixed-Dimension-Geometry-Support). With respect to colors (or any other properties, like SVG groups) surviving render, see #1608 "color(), material() and...

> Does this cover OpenSCAD being able to export smooth curves vs a set of straight lines? Doubtful. For 3D objects I expect that that will be Really Hard. In...

I don't believe so, but PR#4478 includes a more general solution that lets you extract all sorts of information about any geometric shape.

Note that ord(c) will return the numeric code point value for c, so you can say ``` if (32 < ord(c) && ord(c) < 127) ``` But really you should...
