I was just annoyed that i was forced to download the file, as p.g is one of
the NG's i let my mail program pick up all new messages when i get me
regular email. I did not appreciate a 400k download i didnt have to make, i
have to pay for my time online, and the less i spend online during the week
make a BIG difference to my phone bill.
I leave to bin NG's (excapt bin images) to the weekend when its cheaper.

seriously, zip em and stick em in the bin.utils group, no problems

What would be a nice feature is that if it had some sort of preview ability.
What I mean by that is something like a sphere on a colored background where
you can judge the effects of the color change. A real nice addition would be
the addition of filter and transmit values to the selection controls.
Something to think about anyway.

Is it better than this?

And cme seems to take only 12 kilobytes (at least in this sparc).

It looks interesting. When can I see the win executable ?

You'll have to ask to the creator himself...

I also have to pay my phonebill, so, as I said, I'm not very happy (to say the
least) about these huge chunks either. It's a problem for all the groups, also
the binaries groups where you'll often find attachments that are way to large. I
think executables should be zipped or packed in some way or another anyway, but
an even better way for such files larger then, say, 100 or 200K is to put them
on a web-page and post the link. You already know there's a large group that
can't use it anyway (platform).
I just thought Andrew had a point too...

Thankyou Remco. I too pay for my phone calls, and automatically download
messages in povray.general. I was unaware that 400k was excessively large
for such a program, as I'm not a programmer and have no wish to be one. I
was quite happy. 400k's not a huge download anyway. 4Meg..now that would
have annoyed me :-)

This indicates more or less what I think is the problem of such a program:
colour as defined in a POV-source file is absolute, in the rendered image it is
not. A colored sphere will look different on different backgrounds, with
different types of lighting and with all sorts of other settings that may vary
(radiosity), even though the defined colour is the same.
Of course it would be nice to have a preview in which you can set a few of these
things (transmit/filter against a coloured background). By saying that it may be
a bit problematic I don't mean you shouldn't (try to) do it. Actually I think
the transmit/filter-thing you suggest here is really worth thinking over.
