Now, Ken! I did suggest the anal approach after all. Every time you see a
cool result save your source under a new name. :)

I have well over 1000 .pov and .inc files because of compulsive file
saving activities over the years. Sometimes it is just fun to throw
caution to the wind and....

Ahem! Only 1000? I would guess that would make things tidy, but...

I'll do a global search real quick...

Well! I'm shocked! Only 29,987 files. I must be slipping... :)

I bet that that's including the scene examples that come with
all the different versions of pov that you have on your machine:
You Americans just don't know how to count:-/

I get 150 not counting other peoples stuff off NGs and off the web 
and not counting all the demos that I've got with various patches
and versions of POV, and not counting any backups.  Before all of
thsi was taken into accout the figure was 939.

Nope, just my artwork drive. The samples and fellow artists' stuff I keep
with Pov on the primary drive. I lot of those are duplicates with minor
changes, but I have found time to cull irrelevant copies from time-to-time.

I take it that other comment was a dig at our political system. heh, at
least we have something to count. I forget who it was that said, "Democracy
is the worse form of government, except for all the others." Probably
misquoted (sigh).

I've got 1423 .pov files, including MegaPOV demos, demos for my own 
patches, and the official demo scenes. A couple are actually parts of 
scenes, a few (especially isosurface files) have several different 
things in them that really should be in separate files...

I just got through with a manual recount and the number is now at
3434 - all of which are my own work and does not include example
scene files. I previously failed to count the files that I had
archived in .zip files. If I also included the images I have used
for HF's, bump maps, and image maps the numbers would be much
higher.

Nope, I'm not gonna recount (even though Ken brought up an excellent point -
archives). (grin)

That's some rendering going on there then.

I've got 965 .pov files on my computer -- that includes all the demos that
came with the versions of POV that I've got, but doesn't include the .inc
files that I've created that are almost complete scenes in their own right.
