I've never seen any Forth code...what's it like?

StuffIt does work on Unix, it runs on Mac OS X. ;-)
Ok, I'm assuming that's not quite what you had in mind...though if you 
want, I could make a .tgz of the files for you, just send them to me.

Sounds like an interesting problem, povray.advanced-users might be a 
better place...
povray.programming is more for discussion of the program source code 
than the scene language.
