Currently I'm using plain mesh objects, but I would like to use mesh2
objects to improve parsing speed, but I have a small problem:

I don't understand the syntax!!!

Does anyone know some kind of "tutorial" to learn this syntax Maybe I just
need to read POV's help file more slowly, because I didn't find it very
helpful.

Thanks,

Fernando.

: Does anyone know some kind of "tutorial" to learn this syntax

  The POV-Ray 3.5 documentation has a mesh2 tutorial (look in the tutorials
section).

I find the mesh2 tutorial in the docs quite understandable (section
3.4.7).  Apart from that there's a mesh2 sample scene in the Povray 3.5
distribution ('objects/mesh2.pov')
