interesting.  I still think (well, "gut feeling" :-)) that having mesh and
colour/transparency data separate, to be "re-united" perhaps at a later point,
would make working with the (basic) objects so much easier.

also, as you'll be working on the export functionality, perhaps "plan for the
future" and namespace your objects ?  Cousin Ricky posted[*] a pretty neat
summary of "the rules" for making POV-Ray include files "live together happily".

thanks, I hope GS will/can make use of those, as KlP suggested.  (while I too
will "take a look", I guess it'll be, um, "mathematical" :-))

Try using a properly configured real browser.
And results from https://www.urlvoid.com/scan/geocities.ws/ is for le 
whole geocities.ws.

The first result by ThreatLog engine say that
geocities.ws/escortsinbilaspur/ contain Spam/Scam/Fraud.
Nothing to do withevilsnack/c2s3.html

Second result from ZeroCERT engine seems to be a fake page.
The real ZeroCERT site's domain is ORG, not COM...

All the others mention nothing *dangerous*

But now we're out of the charter and it's no longer POV's concern.

I've included a screenshot of the page that appears with this URL

Thanks to Thomas for posting the c2s3.zip.
