Hi,
Is there an easier way to do this? I have about 9,000 lines, one of several
mesh2 objects, in a pov file, that I want to select in order to copy and
paste to another pov file, which also contains several mesh2 objects. The
only would I know to do this is to start selecting and scroll, and scroll,
and scroll.......and scroll until an eternity later I finally have the whole
thing selected. It seems like one ought to be able to tell Povray to "select
from line 8605 to line 17361" and it would be done, but I can't find any way
to do that, nor can I find anything in the documentation about it. Am I
stuck doing it the hard way?
Steve Shelby
