The keyword "strength" does not work and produces the following error:

"Unrecognized input on line NNN: 's'!".

[Ed: Replace NNN by a valid line number]

However, the keyword "strenght" works perfectly fine.

Just thought I'd let everyone know.

	Parser-related bugs are *very* easy to fix :) I should have a correct 
version by this week-end (but I won't be able to announce it 
immediately, you'll have to check on the web page)

I think Tom was talking about the time and effort taken to debug the 
scene file before Francois figured out it was a bug in the patch, and 
what the specific problem was. I've done it the other way around 
before...searching through the source code, even rewriting portions of a 
patch, then finding a typo in the test scene.

Not really.  Since I mostly type with three fingers on each hand, I very
frequently make typos with words were the keystrokes are left-left-right
or right-right-left, typing left-right-left and quickly followed my


I have, however, been banging my head against the wall about an
"infinity is not finite" problem, but that's another story.
