      Yes, it's the same as win98: C:\WINDOWS\Application Data

       BTW Nicholas, I'm having a little trouble trying to save a file. When 
I open the save to PovRay 3.6 box, there is already a highlighted line: 
"C:/Documents and Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/" in the 
filename field. If you delete this line, and then try to add your own 
filename, say, tess1, you can type the 't', but when you try to type the 
next letter 'e', it will add the same line again for every key-stroke, so 
you end up with something like this if you're not looking:

"C:/Documents and 
Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/C:/Documents and 
Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/C:/Documents and 
Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/C:/Documents and 
Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/te"

   If you just add your filename to the end of "C:/Documents and 
Settings/sp/Desktop/TesselSphere-Win-1.3.0-beta/tess1", then, when it's 
compiling all the vertices and lines co-ordinates etc., it will crash the 
program when it gets to "Making Cell edges unique[pass2]"  - but then the 
file is still saved, (incompletely? On checking, it does end in "#end").
