Hello,

I'm using POV-ray 3.6 on a beige Mac G3, OS 9.2.2.
I've been doing a few small animations, but I can't find out where to 
find info about which frame povray is rendering. Such info seems to be 
lacking from both the Message window and the Render progress window. Can 
this info be found anywhere, and if so, where?

Nope, sorry, the message output for this got lost somewhere in 3.6.

Thanks Thorsten, I thought that I was going blind for a while :)

Also, there's something odd with the Quicktime output when doing several 
renders of the same file. Do you know about this, or do you want more info?

Newer versions of QuickTime and their selection of functions in carbon
applications changed a few behaviors regarding QuickTime movie generating
and the code is still catching up.  Make sure you remove the movie file
before you render a new one *if* you are having problems with your
particular configuration.  In some QuickTime/Carbon/Mac OS configurations
the frames might get appended, but in most the code works just right.

No, but thank you for offering.
