: Hi,
: 
: I saw you posted it as diff.  This just makes it unnecessarily hard for
: everyone to follow your changes if the diff is non-trivial as I already
: explained why in the "The right way to patch POV-Ray?".  I would appreciate
: if you could just post the full files you changed instead...
: 

I read your post in that thread, but I disagree. 

Hard to read, it's hard because the code is unreadable.

Hard work, I don't think. Really modern, GUI based, development tools
should let you easily write macros to automate all the operations 
needed to safely import a diff. Then suffices a double click on a toolbar 
button.

And if you don't have such a modern tool, a simple text editor is
sufficient to inspect all the changes.

And regarding the few Kb, it's a courtesy for those not having
a fast internet connection, but that could give you a feedback.


Anyway I posted a zipped tar of the files affected.

Massimo
