OK, then my next (stupid) question is (you can tell I haven't read that
section of the manual lately):
when making the include statements, if the .pov file (which used to be
the .inc file) is not in the same dir. as all the other .inc files which
come with POVRay, do I explicitly state the path like so:
#include ~/ceiling.pov  

or had I better move the ceiling.pov file to /usr/share/povray where all
the other stuff is?
