I am using Win95 and I normally don't use Microsoft's Internet
Explorer at all. Until recently, I didn't even have a recent version
of it installed on my system.

When I first installed one of the POV 3.5 betas, it told me that my
system needed the installation of IE4 and HTML help, in order to view
the new POV help system. I hesitated installing IE4, but I eventually
made a backup copy of my C: drive, and I installed IE 4 and the HTML
help system as well. I'm very glad I made that backup...

Shortly thereafter, my system had a lot of stability problems. I
decided to restore my C: drive to its previous condidtion, using the
backup I had burned before the alleged "browser upgrade". My system
was stable once again.

Now we are up to version 6 of the POV 3.5 beta, and I'd really like to
look at the help files, but I really don't want to install IE4 again.
With all this in mind, I have a few questions:

Are the POV-Ray for Windows 3.5 help files currently available online?

If they currently are not, will they *ever* be available in a format
other than Microsoft's proprietary HTML-help format?

Thanks for listening,
Glen
