	Well in fact my explanation attempt was a bit unclear and apparently
somewhat confusing, as guessed from your "Since I'm a single user" statement.
Please read again:

http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/794/

which better explains what I meant by "it won't protect you from screwing up
any [...] file" in your user space -- note the correction I make here  :-)
