As I've shared before, I am a hands-on learner.  So, I have set up an actual
scenario for myself to experiment with.  I would also like to share it with
all of you.

I am posting an attachment at povray.binaries.scenes-files (look for
Standards Challenge).  It is a folder called "SRS.StandardsChallenge".  In
the folder are three files: "povver1.inc", "povver2.inc" and "scene.pov".

In the first file, there are definitions for the #macros "ball", "rod" and
"block" as well as a definition for the macro "p1_donut".

The second file contains definitions for the #macros "ball", "rod", "block"
and "p2_donut".

The scene file calls the #macros "ball", "rod", "block, "p1_donut" and
"p2_donut".
By reversing the order of the two #include lines in "scene.pov", you get a
different result.

The challenge is to use existing POV-Ray SDL to modify the three files,
presenting them as two (rewritten) *.inc files and eight *.pov files - one
for each possible outcome.
