Of course! That was the whole point of compiling POV. :) It will be a long
time before you see anything from me, though. The code looks perfect to my
inexperienced eyes, so rather than trying to optimize what they've got there
right now, I'll be doing research into (dare I say) better algorithms which
produce at least equally good results. Wish me luck! :)

Only thing that I had to do was find htmlhelp.lib and winmm.lib. I used
implib (as per a suggestion on some site I've lost the URL to) to extract
winmm.lib from system32\winmm.dll. Oh, and I renamed it .obj. I have no idea
whether this is good or bad, all I know is that POV compiled and hasn't
crashed yet... It's just very slow compared to the official binary. About
half speed. :(
