Must be the 'any'-key. ;-)

Thanks, it's a heightfield generated by two granite patterns. It turned out
to look like wallpaper found in some houses, except the color.

For the keys, only sinus curves are involved. The macros make a triangle box
with rounded edges, and then skews some vertices outwards on the sides, and
downwards in the middle (upwards for the space bar).. But, actually it's not
a whole triangle box, because that would be a waste of triangles. It's 1/4
of a box (but without bottom) and the mesh is then mirrored by scale
<-1,1,1> and scale <1,1,-1> to look like a whole key.. This way it uses 1/4
memory.. But enough now.

Me too! I might ask some more questions here related to math, although it
might step on peoples nerves sometimes.

Can't help noticing the windoze key in there; perhaps replace it with a
POVray key? I assume those shortcut buttons on the top are for common
keywords like #declare, sphere, union, etc?

I thought about it too, but I think it's too much. I have the pov-logo as
the keyboard's brand name; discrete but it's always going to be noticed. The
rest should be "realism" and look like a PC keyborad from the late 90's..
I'm considering making a few other versions of other computers.. Eventually
a pure "pov keyboard" is a good idea.. But I have so many projects going on
with Pov... too many. :o) I will post updates soon.
