Wow, I was trying to do exactly the same thing as you were (minus a bit of
your technical knowledge though, I think). Where did you find "OBJuvPOV".
From what you're said, the output is still less than perfect, but I'd like
to mess around with it a bit too. If you come up with any solutions to your
problem, please post them as I am very interested.
