Great to know.  Thanks Fabien, I wondered about the possibility of a
different naming of the earlier POV-Ray versions but I checked up on it in
each of their Docs before posting.  And I never say "Tracer" but say "Trace"
and am in eror to do so apparently.  I don't have the version 0.5 so
couldn't check.
