Yvo,

Thanks, I really appreciate the effort you've put into this. However, I'm having
a problem and I'm wondering if you can suggest what's going wrong.  If I use the
objects... template to create a new sor and then click the "Edit Spline" button
the edit window opens but the programme then crashes and vanishes.

This happens every time on both a Macbook Air running Mavericks and an iMac
running Mountain Lion.

Any ideas?

Peter

Little bug, please download a fixed version at (only application):
http://megapov.inetart.net/beta/POVRay3_7_Unofficial.zip
There are also some minor fixes for syntax highlighting and insert menu 
files with cr/nl.
Thanks for reporting this!

Yvo,

Fantastic.  You don't get that kind of service anywhere very often.

Once again, I really appreciate your efforts on this.

Many thanks
Peter
