Everyone knows women can't type.

I'd respond with a cogent and scathing retort, but I've suddenly found
my fingers unable to locate the correct keys.

Syntax coloring works fine, and you can define povray invocation as
a menu option...

Yes, SciTE is great for editing POV-Ray files.
I have the following in my /usr/share/scite/pov.properties...
command.compile.*.pov=povray +P +W320 +H240 $(FileNameExt)
command.build.*.pov=povray +P +W800 +H600 $(FileNameExt)
command.go.*.pov=povray +P +W1332 +H999 +AM2 +A $(FileNameExt)
...which then let's me launch various different qualities of renders
directly from the editor using the function key short cuts.
SciTE even shows you the povray output in a small pane to the right of
the editor, so it's easy to see mistakes in the SDL code if there are
any or to track the progress of the render.

Get your wife a nice birthday present such as a laptop with a
user-friendly OS and install the Windows version of POV-Ray.
Do not despair if birthday is too far off, women usually
find occasion-free presents acceptable as well ;)

Or a nice laptop with Linux, Blender or Wings 3D and povray exporters.

Or let's go write a GUI for Linux comparable to the one in Windows.
Oh wait, better a cross-platform one, to replace the current Windows one
too. The POV-Win code is UGLY!

The burden is on your statement that Windows is more user-friendly. Asserting they
may be equal isn't good enough.
