That'll be me then.
For the record that's an MSN messenger address, only used as a spamtrap 
for email.   You'd be better off trying to reach me at steve at st4vs 
point net if you're really interested.

Not now, soon.  It's yet to render a frame without manual intervention, 
but I'm getting there.

And not just Linux either:  anything that has bash, sed, grep and povray 
  available, so long as it can mount the SMB fileshare managed by SMPOV. 
  So I'm pretty sure MacOS X, BSDs, et al are included.

Anyway... back to hacking.

Cheers,
   Steve.
