yeah I forgot to rewrite it and save, I've been using the uppercase when I
rewrite things. I've just got 2 problems, lack of understanding of the language
and poor trouble shooting the language to fix errors. like for example the
newest error,

object{ intersection{ object{txt} object{cap} } translate <0,0,-0.05>
pigment{tcolour} }

"C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\POV-Ray\v3.7\include\cap.inc" line
34: Parse Error: Expected 'object', undeclared identifier 'txt' found instead

I would assume the txt is supposed to be the name of an object, similar to the
object{cap}, since it seems to be asking for an object, rather then text.
Chances are I'm way off though.

On another note, where did all you wonderful and helpful people learn this
stuff?
