I am writing an editor for POV-RAY using Python ( a highly portable
scripting language and Tkinter which is included).

It is still in beta stage : It is working, but a lot of features have
still to be added.

You just have to have python installed ( it is included in most linux
distributions).
You can find at www.python.org

Once installed just type the following line where 82.py is saved :
  >python 82.py

I also assumed that x-povray is installed in /usr/bin/

Comments are appreciated
I know it still a long way

NB : It works with Windows 2000 ( and Mac ?). The render process doesn't.


TODO:
Include output, error streams in the application.
Save the parameters before exiting.
Implement syntax color highlight (Any help there would be appreciated)
Add a horizontal scrollbar to the text editor.
Improve the 'not-too-accurate' line number.
Implement the edit menu. It is useless for the time being.
