I'd like to request that an unpacked version of POV with all it's 
bits for each platform be put somewhere on the server.  

The reason why I ask this is that today I was toying with the idea
of producing an "Insert" menu for emacs a la Win95 version of POV.

I know that all the info for the Win95 version is kept in a file that
you can customise, so I wanted a copy of that file and couldn't find
one anywhere on the POV server without d/l'ing a Win version which 
I have now way of unpacking as I don't have access to any Microsoft
based machines.  

My solution was to email Ken, I didn't want to post a request here 
for the Insert-Menu file because I'd probably get hundreds in my
mail.  

My grand plan is to write a perl script that will produce the emacs
menu from the Insert-Menu file that's used for the other platforms,
that way as POV is upgraded, the perl script just needs to be run
on the standard Insert-Menu file and it will produce a new Insert
menu for emacs.    

I also don't think it's fair on Ken that everyone has to go to him
for all these little bits and pieces.  Maybe I should have emailed
Mark instead?
