I haven't installed for awhile (from the base file).

I posted a link to the Pov home site and now I'm being asked what:

"scene file parser initialization error."
"can't open input file"

means. :) HELP!

It means POV can't find the specified input (scene) file; e.g. when you mis-type
the input file name on the command line. POVWin should use the name of the
currently open file by default so I don't know what might be causing the error
in that case.

Ah, he mis-spelled the file name, thanks. :)
