Hi Martin - I looked over the Metapost samples on the Therion Wiki but found nothing that seemed useful. I have done some Metapost code for symbols like stalactites and stalacmites, and I modified the popcorn symbol, so Metapost is not completely alien to my experience. I am no expert, though.
The pendant symbol is a bit of a challenge because it is not straight lines. I need to figure out how to draw curved lines for it. The stromatolite symbol is even more of a challenge because I can't find anything to draw! One of my caving buddies has created his own symbol. He did it as a small jpg file, and I think I could do it in Metapost without much trouble. I would like to use an official symbol, if such a thing exists.
