Well, ok. That would certainly be possible. To be exact: Using another 
programming language that output some SDL code is most likely the 
solution to my problem. But: What good will it do I just I write my 
utilities for my favourite programming language. It would be better to 
develop some kind of library for that programming language that would be 
used by most people who want to develop extensions that cannot be done 
properly with POVRay SDL. A standard solution to this should emerge. 
Anyone interested in it (while having no idea what it should be like)?
