I agree with you.

However, they did not. The end.


As I said in my other post, it's really ment for saving variables 
between frames of an animation so you can load them back in the next frame.

Notice also that POV-Ray can *write* arbitrary text into an output file. 
Just not *read* it. (Odd, but true.)


Also note the other reply; you can read this particular file just with 
#include, since it's already in POV-Ray SDL format...
