   Yes, all the textures are one image map, found with google at

     http://www.fromthedirt.com/textures/concrete.jpg

    but I've "proceduralized" it with several turbulent warps to avoid 
pixelization. On the floor it is used with higher turbulence, and on the 
walls it uses two layers with little but different turbulence values.

   No, I'm just on the same situation... but I don't even know how UV 
mapping works in POV-Ray.

   I just used the texturing capability of Wings3D to assign different 
materials to groups of faces, so I can rotate them later with POV to 
face the correct direction.

   Also, I assigned different materials to the fictitious blocks/tiles, 
so the texturing is not continuous from tile to tile. In total, the set 
of column+arch uses 12 different textures, 4 for each direction. The 
mesh is contained on a macro to obtain a different texturing on each copy.
