- Input formats:
   description of all types of input that POV-Ray can deal with,
   except *.pov, *.inc and *.ini files.
   - Image formats:
       - TGA
       - SYS
       - PNG
       - ...
       - Notes on use
   - Internal formats:
       - function
   - Density formats:
       - DF3
       (- DF/DFD if it will make it into an official)
   (- Font formats ?)
   ( ... )

This kind of like the setup I was thinking of, but I havn't finished
these thoughts. "Internal formats" could be indented one more level and
be part of Image formats. Font files could be part of it, or not. Where
in the whole structure of the SDL section does it fit best? etc.

It will.
