I finally got OE working with the newsgroups so this should now be the right
place to post to.

POVColor 1.3 has been released at povcolor.sourceforge.net.  Some new
features are as follows:

Loading and saving maps in POV syntax..
Loading and saving imports in POV syntax.

The program works, but there are still a few problems.

The load/import routine uses a rather pathetic parser I wrote.  It looks for
items in the format:

#declare <name> = <color_map | colour_map> {
  entries
  }

The entries can be either single or dual entries, but the color must be in
vector format, <1, 0, 0>  for example.  They must also be rgb or rgbt. Two
entries with the same position may cause problems as well because of the way
the gradient routines work.  The gradient routines expect each item to have
it's own position.  A possible future workaround would be to offset
identical items by a small amount.
