Midpoint plugin

I just wrote a plugin that creates a cpoint at the midpoint of any two arbitrary points. You can get it from its page at github and you can read about it on my blog.

the fist one is a good one... thank you for writing this plugin

it will save me time... until now, i would draw a provisonal cercle or line, to get the point, and then delete it...

now i won't have to delete anything

There is also a midpoint.rb made by Rick Wilson. This is the one I use.

it would be nice to add a point of golden section(by Pifagor)
it's good for design, and for the development of plug-in
really make a?

The 'midpoint' script code is easily recast so that the new guide-point is not placed half way.
What proportion would you want it to be for a 'golden-section' - probably gs=point1.distance(point2)/1.6180339887 will be more than accurate enough for the offset of the picked point1 towards point2... thus pointc=point1.offset(point1.vector_to(point2), gs); then use entities.add_cpoint(pointc)
