I just found a solution... nice mingw/console port,
Persistence of Vision(tm) Ray Tracer Version MegaPOV 1.0/ based on
Pov-RAY 3.5 Unix (.CYGWIN_NT-4.0.gcc) :-)
Thanks!

To make development simpler and memory requirements less agressive ?
As long as it is customizable, it is not limit but kind of advanced setting
(available only for those with compilers :-) ). Analogically you are free to
ask Microsoft why "Windows limits selecting multiple files in the "Open"
system dialog" as you stated.

You can use the windows START command so that it runs minimized, and you
can configure POV-Ray so that it does not grab focus, but you will still
have a splash screen and a GUI.

It is not an official version, but many people in IMP use this and have
been very happy with it.
Thanks again Christoph!!!

Yes, and that's what I said in my first post in this thread :-)

You said "But you can call the official Windows version via the command-
line just fine." Which I understood.
You later said "Look into manual for details about your wishes," in
response to a request for a "do not start GUI" switch. This had me
scratching my head and rereading the docs looking for a switch I might have
missed.
I am just trying to show why I posted what I did. It is completely likely
that I have overlooked parts of POV-Ray that can make my life easier. I
thought this could have been one of those.
My apologies if I was unclear.

You are confusing the statements from two different people here...

You are correct, I copied from the wrong spot. ABX said "You can call GUI
version from command line".
My apologies again.

Yes, very advanced - compiling POV-Ray GUI with "your favorite"
MS Windows compiler is not simple I'm afraid...

Yes, I'm asking that :-)
But I understand that the open window is not supposed to
pass 300+ file names, while the queue should allow for
large number of files...
Anyway, as there IS a command-line, I will use GUI only
for single or small numbers of files.
Have a nice day!

I meant that controlling statically allocated and not resizeable arrays is far
simpler when there are many more important changes to be done during
development. Making it resizable would be rarely used (iirc you are the first
person who noticed such problem). I suppose every development has compromises
between wishes, needs and free time.

But possible. And anybody who will ask how to do this with available free
compilers for win32 will receive answer from me. I managed to compile it with
probably all freely availble win32 compilers.

You are probably confusing official and unofficial nature of those products
here. AFAIK official GUI development had support from Intel. This can be
important difference for longer renderings since Intel compiler produces
faster code than MinGW.
