I rendered the beautiful illustrations from the demo scene file
i_internal.pov, but I got tired of having to go back and forth between
the illustrations and the scene file to see which function was
represented by a given illustration. So I modified i_internal.pov to
render the name of the function into the image. The modified file is
attached.
There are two issues with the header comments. First, the creation date
is ambiguous. Second, there is a character in the original author's
first name that my text editor (kwrite) cannot figure out. A hex dump
shows the character as 0x8E, which is an illegal character in Unicode
and, as far as I can tell, in all ISO Latin character sets. Some
research and a bit of serendipity revealed that it is the Windows-1252
character capital Z with a caron. Is this correct?

I would rather bet for "René Smellenbergh"
Yvo & René have been long time contributors to povray.
Presently, Yvo is still contributing to the povray.macintosh group (very
kindly :-) )
Guess what: 0x8E is "é" in Mac OS Roman.

My newsreader renders this as lowercase e acute, but the Web interface
renders it as capital A tilde-copyright, which is what happens if you
parse UTF-8 as if it were straight 8-bit ISO 8859-1. Actually, I've
noticed this in your "... a écrit :" for a long time now; the
NTTP-to-HTML converter software is making an incorrect assumption about
the text encoding (which was probably the correct assumption before
UTF-8 became popular)--yet, it serves its HTML as UTF-8..

Of course! I don't have a Mac, but I've seen Yvo's posts in other
groups. But I am not familiar with René.

And in the developer credits of the render messages, of course.
