He he he, the docs have never been complete for any POV version that
I've used. That is, if you compare it to some commercial software that
comes with a thick, well written tutorial on how to use the product
and all its features. Of course, we don't have to pay a large price
for POV-Ray, like some of those commercial applicaions with their
thick manuals.   :)

I understand that the programmers are busy enough just writing the
software. I also don't mind "reading between the lines" a little bit,
if it means the developers get to spend more time perfecting the
software. I guess in a perfect world, some talented person would be
appointed the official technical writer for the POV-Team. I'm thinking
of someone who doesn't write any actual code, but spends their time
documenting  what the programmers have done.

Just a thought...
