  Thanx :)

  Btw, I compiled the newest version of uvpov in this Solaris Sparcstation.
Your //-comments caused lots of trouble. There's no easy way to automatically
replace them with /* ... */. One problem is that some of the //-comments
are inside a bigger /**/-comment block, so replacing the //-comments breaks
the bigger block.
  One possibility is just to automatically remove the //-comments, but that
might cause some problems too...
  You have some very tricky comment lines like the line 1028 in cones.c:

  //*/

  It's not trivial for a line-by-line filter to see whether that is the
beginning of an //-comment or the end of an /*...*/ comment.
  Also the http:// lines cause headache to the filtering.

  Would it be too much asked if you could fix this?

  The result was that I got most of the comments working by filtering, but
had to make some modifications by hand before it was completely fixed.

  The lack of ending newline at the end of radiosit.c also caused problems
with the filtering (I still don't know why).
