Okay, thanks for enlightening me on that, I don't remember what other people
had said about it so I envisioned mostly Gnome or KDE or Wine (never have
used Linux BTW) being used with POV-Ray somehow in those.  I used the
POV-Ray for DOS quite a bit years ago and it sounds a lot like how that was,
although you probably have a better editor than MS Edit like I had used.  I
fluctuated quite a bit between the DOS and Windows ones but CodeMax really
ended that for me.
