1) Moved the parser to a background thread.
2) #switch (#case, #range, #else) gets parsed and shadowed/disabled like 
the #if does
5) Support povray built-in variables through the .ini. i.e. image_width, 
clock, etc.

Nice.
(the link also works for automatic install in eclipse)

I had to reinstall eclipse (for new version Neon, instead of Mars), and
the plugin is working like a charm now
(must have been a problem of previous configuration).

What I would like (in the mood: give me a finger, I take the arm):
* A mono-type font for the render message view
* support of srgb and other, in addition to rgb (both for syntax and tools)
* outline: a single quote character instead of double charater for #include
* no more /usr/local/include in library path (where does that come from ?)
* a way to open an include file (such as colors.inc): F2 give the full
path, but how to open it in editor ?


Extra bonus: any way to add keywords, under user control (hint: hgpovray
add a few objects...).
Maybe can be solved with some configurable (additional) syntax file.
So far the outline get stopped by added object.

I use Mars.2 for povclipse2 dev.  My Neon is not as stable as I'd like. 
(And takes *forever* to startup)

agreed

yes

Huh, I hadn't noticed that. Lame. (and embarrassed :) )

Um, Is it in the prefs page?

Ctrl-click over #include "colors.inc" works for me. The whole thing is 
very tooltip and hyperlink oriented.
#declare MyColor = Yellow;
and ctrl-click on Yellow opens colors.inc positioned at the declaration 
for Yellow.

Yes, I can look at that.  Is there a list of objects somewhere?
An object like "lemon {}" would be easy to add. Functionality like srgb 
would be much harder.

Nope, it seems to come from project properties

And no way to have a "delete" for that item.

I'm enjoying the ctrl- click, thank for reminding me of it (I do not use
enough eclipse to remember it)

The list is in the associated wiki:

https://bitbucket.org/LeForgeron/povray/wiki/Hgpovray

or

https://github.com/LeForgeron/povray/wiki/Hgpovray

which reminds me that I'm late on the nurbs part.
Bad bad zoot.
