I have read on the MegaPOV site that in order to enable
the features of this patch you must add a line to all (.inc)
files. I have an Include folder for my POV 3.5 - my question
is:  Do I have to open up each .inc file and add this particular
line in order to enable the features of MegaPOV?
   Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but I'm fairly
new to POV and still learning the program.  Please reply to
gol### [at] sprintca and Thanks a lot for any answers back.

No, you don't, as the standard include files don't use MegaPOV features. 
You only add it to scene- and includefiles if they use typical MegaPOV 
features. Read section "6.2.5  The #version Directive" of the POV-Ray 
documentation for more information on how and why to use the version 
directive.
