Hi,

I have been having trouble getting the Post_Scene_Command function to work.
For example, using the following line in an INI file should make POV-Ray
start Notepad once it has finished rendering:

Post_Scene_Command=C:\Windows\Notepad.exe

With POV3.1 this works as expected. With POV3.5 it doesn't do anything. (I
have set the Options/IO Restrictions to 'No Restrictions' and the 'Disable
Starting Other Programs' is unchecked).

Incidentally, by also using the 'Create_Ini' option the new INI file has a
blank entry for the Post_Scene_Command - I wonder whether the scene parser
is reading the Post_Scene_Command line at all?

Regards,

Stephen
