I tried opening your zip file but I got a message saying it is corrupted or
invalid. POV-Ray 3.6 should be able to deal with #declare #while structures
just fine. I know there is a Search --> Match Brace on the menu bar. Not
sure if that will help you much. I used POV-Ray a long time ago, then got
back into it. When I tried to render my old stuff, I just had to go
through it, error by error, and figure it out (or give up - ha ha).
Good luck, Janet
