[OS X TeX] creating a ps object

[Nitecki, Zbigniew H.]

I want to tile a large rectangular area with tiles.  All the tiles are (congruent) squares filled with a specific color and with some curves drawn on them.  They come in more than one variety, but there are enough of each variety that
I want to create  “tile” templates (for thesevarieties, with color and the specific curve defined by parameters)
and use multirput to do the tiling.

I’m looking for a way to define a graphical object which is self-contained, perhaps with a few parameters that
need to be filled in, which can then be treated like other system-defined objects (e.g. pscircles, pslines)—specifically which can be rput anywhere in a larger picture, with some internal coordinates which get treated
as relative coordinates.  I thought \newpsobject could work, but that is only for adding bells and whistles to
already defined objects.

Any suggestons?
