    Seriously - people keep on throwing in the requirement for a parser as
being the main reason we'll never see a modeller that implements all of POVs
features or seamless hand-coding - what a load of tosh ! POV parses .pov
source files, right ? Therefore _any_ program can parse .pov source files.
You know, it is possible to write a parser without borrowing the code from
somewhere else !
