Hi,
I found 2 possible bugs in pov 3.5 win32

1) boxed pattern - it don't work (in every point it returns 0.0), and when 
I replaced boxed with function - I just copy/paste formule from manual - it 
worked correctly

2) dispertion. I make a sphere, rander it about 20 times (with or without 
radiosiy, with on/off coustics, ior etc). I added dispertion - but it did't 
work. Neither dispertion 1 or 1.5 or 100, disp_samples 10 or 100 etc.
After I close Pov, and start it again (to reload resolution init file) - it 
worked o.k.

3) 
  area_light x,y,0,0
  circular orient  

results in memory allocation error, instead of reporting parse error

Can't confirm

Try this example:

// SCENE
  plane{
    -z , 0
    pigment{
      boxed
      color_map{
        [0 rgb 0]
        [1 rgb 1]
      }
    }
    finish{
      ambient 1
      diffuse 0
    }
    translate z*3
  }
// SCENE

Can't confirm. /scenes/lights/dispersion_photons.pov works fine for me. Please
post exact scene and check first if you can repeat this effect.

Haven't you noticed 'Parse Error' string at begining or memory allocation
error message ?

I remember last time when I reported similiar thing I have recived "justice
for unfair input ;-)" from Thorsten :-)
