Well...
It's not "too bad": i really prefer pov the way it is then the way it
could have been if pov was a library ...
(though a library that's freeware ( != gpl) would be ok, i suppose)
Anyway, with OOPov-Ray(better than "A pov-ray that allows defining new
keywirds using OOP 8), someone could do a function tha translates any
kind of file into a pov file...
BTW, is pov.programming a special NG or what? bc this thread has been
going on for more thn 20 days(the longest time i've ever seen a thread
to survive 8)
