There are other platforms?
I imagine that other platforms have ways of calling small batch programs
that write text files which contain the date and time. You have the pov.ini
run them, then read them in the pov script i/o functions. Including cross
platform instructions in the comments would make it cross platform.

Sorry, that's not correct. It's Saturday in the bible - as the Jews
celebrate it. Sunday as the day of the lord is caused by Easter and JC
resurrection.

Well, I doubt that the Bible ever mentions "Saturday" or "Sunday" by
those names. But it's clear, isn't it?, that the crucifixion (Good
Friday) was on the "day of preparation", i.e. the day before the "day of
rest" -- which is still called something like `sabbat' in some Romance
languages as well as Hebrew.

Of course, the bible does not mention those names, which are of
Latin-Germanic origin if I'm not mistaken (Thursday = Thor's day, Friday =
Freya's day etc.).
I may misunderstand you, but I was not talking about the crucifixion, but
the resurrection of J.C. which is celebrated each Sunday.
But to be honest: It is absolutely arbitrary which day one chooses to let
the week begin, isn't it?

Not if we want to keep on calling saturday/sunday the week-end. :-)
Anyway, there is a European Standard that specifies, that the week
starts on monday, so in Europe at least, it is official. Don't know
about the rest of the world.

I'm no Bible expert; the crucifixion is the only link I know between the
ancient Jewish week and the modern week. If the crucifixion was the day
before "the day of rest", then the resurrection must be the day after.

So we agree and I got you partly wrong.

"On the third day he rose again", so could be the day after the day
after... depends on if you count the day he was buried as the first day or
not.
But standard calendars have the week ends in their proper places, at
both ends of the week. The week starts at one end on Sunday and goes through
the other end which is Saturday.

Zero-based indexing is rare in the ancient world; that bit, at least, is
uncontroversial: the cross-raising was day 1 (Friday), the resurrection
day 3 (Sunday).

American standard, yes, but evidently not Eurostandard.
