Sorry, I have wronly reported from my broken memory.
It is 'int Unofficial;' in povray.h.

I was not concerned on MLPOV becouse Mael refused :-( to participate patches

I will check and reconsider it.

As discussed in the 'United POV-Ray'-thread there is probably still some
way to go until there is a user friendly and well working patch

I was wandering through your website and found out that
http://abx.art.pl/pov/ contains an error: it links to
http://abx.art.pl/pov/bonus\pack.php instead of
http://abx.art.pl/pov/bonus/pack.php (the last slash is wrong)

regards,
apache
