If you are using POV-Ray for Windows and not for DOS (nor some others I
believe) then the default reverts to Bmp or other system (Mac) dependant
file type, not a Targa anymore.
Also, when naming your output file manually, using +oC:\images\testpov.bmp
for example, you need the file extension to match the type being created or
a image viewer will not read it properly.
