My 2 centimes (until Dec 31, 1999)
I don't think it's necessary to rewrite the help file, which is very good on the
whole. However, I completely agree that there's a lot to do... Povray has become
so powerful that my lingering "fear" is to see it becoming more
programmer-oriented than user-oriented. But that's another debate...
Perhaps we can distinguish between what would be the enhancement of the current
help (basically a more practical tutorial on media, macros, and radiosity, that
could be integrated in the present help), and an "applied tips" section (how to
get better lighting, how to do realistic skies, water, how to make a tree with a
recursive macro etc.) fed by users.
