I agree with you that the .INI files is limiting the language a lot. I mainly
use POVRay for producing graphics to my other hobby - game programming - and it
seems to me to be a shame that you, for instance, can't specify the
output-filename with the language directly. You could of course use batchfiles
and that sort of things, but it would IMHO be nicer if it was possible to
directly use the extreme flexible power that the language provides.

It would be really nice if it was possible to get rid of those .INI files. :-)

Just my two ears...

PS. Yes, I know how to use the commandline!
