Oops.
This is why we test after we add a new feature. Unfortunately I forgot
to do that after I added metallic reflection. I've got a fix which I'll
put online this evening. Any other bugs I should be looking for?
I really need to automate that regression testing...

Is anyone planning on doing a Mac version? Even a quick-and-dirty
compile, without features such as syntax coloring for the new keywords
etc.

You might want to poke at the camera code; Camera Ray Perturbation, as the
docs put it, causes at least the Windows version to die ungracefully..

Wow, that's an old one. It came with the slope-dependent textures
code. I'll have it fixed this evening too.

And to think all this time I thought this custom compiled POV-Ray making stuff was
easy.
Thankyou from me too Ron.

Patched versions of the source and of the windows binary are online
now. The Linux binary will have to wait until my old 486 finishes
compiling it, but the source is there to build your own if you're
in a hurry.

Actually, this version doesn't colour code the new keywords either, making
me keep thinking I spelled something wrong :)
