Reactionary Ken strikes a blow for for non-hackers!  I don't think the POV team
would commit the sacriledge of converting POV into a full blown programming
language "with added ray-tracing", but I'm glad Ken that you have fired a
warning shot.

Not that I am against programmability - it  was only when the team provided POV
with a selection of programming constructs that I saw POV as a seriously useful
plaything.  But any changes which get in the way of the primary purpose of the
program must be bad. (Please, team, concentrate on making media eaier to
predict, more controllable, more versatile and faster! )

OK, the programming features are limited and a bit verbose, but they give
tremendous scope and, as you say, Ken. POV-Ray is still accessible to people
with minimal programming skills.  Long may it remain so.
