Although the main download area at www.povray.org mentions
the MS-DOS version to be 3.1g, the DOS subsection still lists
the version as 3.1e, as does the README in ftp.povray.org.
(Both binary and source file _do_ contain 3.1g, of course.)

Maybe someone finds the time to fix it -
there are still a few of us Neandertals out there using this platform ;-)

Many thanks

     Gerald

don't worry. Keeping documentation up to date can be difficult. Have you
tried emailing the authors? Feedback is very important. Don't worry about
using the DOS version, I use it, as their is not a native OS/2 version
available form www.povray.org

Greetings:
	I just thought that you might like to know that there is a OS/2 native
version of Pov-ray 3.1 on Hobbes. Admittedly, it is not an official
version.
