For christ's sake, not VB - that's a horrible
travesty of a programming language. It's not even
object-oriented!

I wrote a grammar for a subset of POV using
a Java parser called JavaCC. I use it to turn POV models
(output from Moray) into nested objects that I can combine
and manipulate and then turn back into POV format. It
works fine but I'd like a formal description of POV language -
does such exist?
