Hi folks. Now let's get one thing straight... Win POV's
rerun/continue feature is rather userful! It's nice to be able to
automatically resume a render without going through command line
options... But it doesn't work too well with animations. I don't know
what the feature does internally (probably just puts +C on the
command line) and whether this is Windows-specific or due to the way
the renderer itself works... What I do know is that if a render gets
stopped at, say, frame 179, then clicking "continue" simply loads
frame 1 back in, and the renderer immediatly terminates because this
frame is done. Of course, what most people probably expect is for
POV-Ray to reload frame 179, finish rendering that, and continue with
the rest of the animation...

I'm not saying you can't get POV-Ray to do it - you can use +SF and
so forth - it's just that it would be "nice" if this did what you'd
expect, that's all.

Sorry to wine ;-)
Andrew.
