After looking at the plugins listed with the Winpov editor:

parkett.lua
Suffers from what looks like a word warp problem. Line 186 needs to be
restored to its original length.
For this plugin I think the next line (187) should be the
   pov:write(" translate <-.5,-.5,0> ")
I will send the author an email.

Helix.lua
Was probably writen for Pov3.1, in which case a missing semi-colon was not a
problem. To have it run with Pov3.5 I think line 147 should be
   pov:write("#declare R = 1;")
A semi colon after the number one (1)
This seams to resolve the warning message from Pov3.5
I will send the author an email.

I had no problem selecting a texture for the Knot.lua plugin.
Note: the plugins Texture button will only list textures already declared
