These UICB_xxs are all very well but
2 probs
1.
Of the src I have looked at (win, dos, unix, linux) none of the config.h
files
define these and so they all resolve to nothing in frame.h like so
#ifndef UICB_PARSE_ERROR  /* Alert UI that a parse error occurred */
#define UICB_PARSE_ERROR
#endif
Does the mac config.h define these (I can't read hqx files) & if so why don't
other platforms use them

2.
Even if they were defined there is no define corresponding to the
WIN_WhereError function - just the following 4 defines
UICB_PARSE_ERROR  /* Alert UI that a parse error occurred */
UICB_USER_ABORT  /* alert UI that user aborted the render */
UICB_OPEN_INCLUDE_FILE  /* alert UI that an include file was opened during
parse */
UICB_CLOSE_INCLUDE_FILE  /* alert UI that an include file was closed during
parse */
so maybe a define of UICB_WhereError could be added in config.h & frame.h to
alert the UI of where in the file the parsing error occured
& in Where_Error this funcion could be called
Only WinPOV calls this kind of function

I can't find these UICB macros in the unix src (frame.h et al.)

Anyway just for the hell of it could Nathan PLEASE add the call I mentioned
in my previous post to the next version of WinMegaPOV - even if it is just
for the compiled binary.
