I'd like that too - I'm always amazed at how MANY clever tools people have come
up with, and it's certainly hard to find them all, keep them straight, and
remember that they even exist so you can use them.

I'm sure Thomas has a stockpile of all sorts of stuff   ;)

I'd say that for the most part, many of the really useful things I've seen are
..inc or .pov files, and so perhaps all that would be needed is the posting of a
zipped directory packed with goodies.


Speaking of which, I always come across talk of the Chris Colefax tools, and I
was lucky enough to find a directory that's still up and has a ton of his work
archived:

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/learn-43/lib/photoz/.g/scottd/pov/povray3/mess/

I hope that helps anyone who's been looking for a particular include file.
