small typo makes pythonscad scrash

[Matthieu Hendriks]

A typo usuing a ,translate instead op .translate (komma versus dot) makes pythonscad crash (Ubuntu, build from sourcecode)

# filename p1.py

from openscad import *
blok = union(cube([30,8,2]) ,text('Hello World', size=4.0).linear_extrude(3),translate([1,1,0]))
blok.show()

I got the most recent version. When I start from the command promt

./openscad

Loaded design '/home/matthieu/pyscad_drawings/proef/p1.py'.
Running Python 3.10.12 without venv.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Thank you for pointing that out.

Guys like you help to make it more stable.

Of course this error is corrected already in latest github repository

As a bonus, translate will also accept a list of solids.

For union, intersection and difference, following arruments are also possible now

None, False -> void

True            -> opposite of void

This allows for nice algorithms like

e.g.

result = None

for i in range(3)

  result = union(result, cube(4).rotz(40*i)

But it's way better to work with objects lists instead
