The syntax highlighter used in the various versions of POV for windows
thinks atan() is a valid function.
Have I discovered a new bug? Should I post to povray.bugreports?

No - atan() *is* invalid. POV-Ray 3.1 only supports the atan2() function,
with instructions in the docs to use atan2(A, 1) if you want something that
acts like regular atan().

I know this, but atan() is highlighted in purple as if it were a valid
keyword. Hence my question.
However, I think this is a problem with the Codemax editor, not the
POV-Ray (or MegaPOV) program. Hence my asking if I should post my bug
report to p.br.

Mea culpa - I read your original message back to front! So, I guess I
should reply back to front as well - a quick perusal of the MegaPOV docs
reveals that atan() *is* valid in isosurfaces, so it would appear that it's
not a bug when using the editor with MegaPOV...

But... but... but... it also does it with P.O.V. (Plain Ol' Vanilla) POV
as well!!!

The atan keyword (without parentheses) can be used in the julia object
in the official version.
