Hmpf!



Some preliminary remarks:

Building the editor dlls requires that you have the ATL libraries and  
headers installed. They are included in the default installation options  
of VC2k5, but can be deselected. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning in  
the build instructions.

Using the 'DEVELOPMENT' macro to make POV-Ray search for the editor dlls  
in the 'codemax' directory (as described in the readme) does not work,  
because it looks for them in the wrong place. POV-Ray looks for  
'"..\\codemax\\" BINDIRNAME "\\" EDITDLLNAME', but it should be  
'"..\\..\\codemax\\" BINDIRNAME "\\" EDITDLLNAME'.

The linker fails to link in the debug info in 'vc80.pdb' because it is not  
in the same directory as 'povcore-debug.lib' (one is in 'Win32 Debug', the  
other in 'bin32'). I have not yet investigated what impact this has on  
debugging.


Compilation produced no errors though, and the resulting executable seems  
to work fine. I have not attempted to add OpenEXR yet.
