I'm looking for a braid creator for povray.  Googling found a reference to a 
site at the following address:

http://quark.vpplus.com/~redbeard/raytrace/POVRay-Util.html

This link appears to be broken.  Can anybody help?  If so please email to
tym### [at] yahoocom (preferred)
or
try### [at] yahoocom

thanks.

PS any hints for an algorithm would be appreciated as well.  I've played with 
the quilting pattern, but I haven't been happy with it.

I happen to have something in my collection of miscellaneous povs  :-)
One is made by Margus Ramst, in 2000 (twined_torus.pov) for megapov
The other is made by Mike Williams, in 2004 (braid.pov) for version 3.6

As far as I remember, I got them from these newsgroups. If you cannot find
them, and the authors willing, I can post them in p.b.s-f

Thanks Thomas.  That's a great help.  I'll look around for them.
