: The setting of Number_Of_Waves is preserved between renders

  I have noticed that there are many things that are preserved between
renders in povwin, and many of those can be considered bugs.
  Another example is the maximum depth that was calculated (I don't remember
the exact wording of the report). Set your max_trace_level to, for example, 7
and trace a scene with glass. Povray will report the max depth as 7. No
set the max_trace level to 5 and trace. Povray will still report max depth
as being 7. If you restart povray and trace again, it will report correctly 5.

):5;i&&_>1;printf("%s",_-70?_&1?"[]":" ":(_=0,"\n")),_/=2);} /*- Warp -*/
