INTRODUCTION
MetaPost, in fact Metafun, has extensions to include external figures
as well as typeset text.
For example:
\startMPcode
draw externalfigure("cow") ;
\stopMPcode
would be the equivalent to the ConTeXt command.
\externalfigure [cow]

For educational purposes I try to simulate a ammeter for reading practice.

Hi!
I look for a way to randomize control points of a path, leaving the
coordinates themselves untouched.
The reason is the following: I want to draw (for example) a circle
with a triangle inside, and I want them to look slightly randomized.
If I do (see attached pdf for a typical result of this)
... I suppose the impossibility of combining
asymptote code and such Lua code (or not?).
There is a similar possibility, at least in Metapost? For simpler pictures it
would probably suffice
Thanx
