Hmmm ... OK I'm seeing something similar with a big include file (> 75M)
that I've been using for ages and /haven't/ touched since 2011
ash@linux-c2bm:~/POV-Ray/Source $ ll ../Includes/gargoyle.inc
-rw-r--r-- 1 ash users 75777971 Apr 6 2011 ../Includes/gargoyle.inc
File '/users/ash/POV-Ray/Includes/gargoyle.inc' line 2868724: Parse
Error: Illegal character in input file, value is b7.
Fatal error in parser: Cannot parse input.
Odd that things worked fine two days ago (and yesterday) ... Indeed when
I bring the file into gedit it halts reading the file for "illegal
character" so I canceled ... however reading the file with vi I see a
problem at the offending line:
I've seen this before (different include), but didn't follow up as I was
sure it would be one of those "I can't duplicate it" cases and I dropped
it ... now with another user having problems I feel it's prudent to
speak up now.
