Since the introduction of macros with POV-Ray v3.1 many utility
macros have been introduced with a file extension of .MCR identifying
it as a Pov macro file. Naturally this is an underground movement but
since this is the way that Chris Colefax identifies them it is becoming
a standard designation for macro files.
  One unfortunate spin off from this is that POV-Win does not recognize
the .MCR file extension and any files opened or saved with that extension
are ignored by the editor and syntax highlighting is turned off by default.
It can of course be corrected by manually changing the language settings
for each file that you open or save with that extension but I suggest it
would be useful to add that extension as one recognized by the editor in
some future version of the program.

Cheers,
