MMmmm yes and no. I tried to present a uniform style of coding in the
docs but didn't really succeed. In a discussion on the matter Warp once
pointed out that users/newbies should see different coding styles in
the docs as they will also encounter them in the wild.
There is no 'standard' coding style for POV-Ray, so in that regard Warp
is right, yet IMO the style in the docs should be consistent (as
consistent as possible). Maybe add a chapter on style showing the
differences, but .... beware, before you know the phrase "bain dead"
will be used in discussions on the matter of the "right" coding style.
ingo (who still hasn't looked at your efforts on the wiki and is
ashamed)
