Yes, I had the same thing. Only that page, all other pages work fine. I
could view source to get the link to download.

I had a file directory problem, now solved.
The Wavelength() macro works and I am very happy. Now when I send a ray
through a system (in conventional optical 'forward' ray tracing), not
only are the angles calculated in povray, but the ray has the correct
color. :-)

Which was exactly the problem? I'm about to install POV on a eMac with
Mac OS X, and it will be nice to be aware of it...

I'm glad it served to you. It's also nice to discover one more use for
the CIE macros (again don't forget to post the final pic!).

Jaime Vives Piqueres's furious key-hammering produced this:

I'm guessing that he simply forgot to set the path to the lightsys3 directory
in his POV-Ray settings.

One thing to keep in mind with MacPOV and MacMegaPOV (hint: use MacMegaPOV...the
official 3.5 doesn't use all the CPU power in OS X) is that you have to set the
include file paths. Unlike the Windows version, the Mac OS release does not
set the path for you. Minor inconvenience, I assure you. :)
One thing to note, unlike with many "common" applications, there is not much of
a benefit to using a PowerPC processor with POV-Ray (my G4-733, for instance, is
only a touch faster than my P3-750 at rendering). So a 2.0GHz Pentium 4 will
probably beat a G4-1.25 hands down.

This isn't true. This is only a rumor created by Chris Huff.

It is true, and testable. The preview version you released may fix it, I
have not tested that, but the official release left a large chunk of the
CPU idle, from 20-30%, while MacMegaPOV pinned the CPU at 100%.

What is more relevant what comes out in the end, not what some fuzzy CPU
usage indicator suggests is going on. As you know, there is no way to tell
a "while(1) { }" from an actual computation...

BTW, I should point out that 3.51 (of which a public Mac beta is available)
cannot be directly compared with 3.5 because of some antialising bug fixes
that among other scenes also affect benchmark.pov.

Well, I put aliases to these files in the include directory, so as to
keep the files organized and separate. There was no error when reading
the 'include' command, so it saw the file, but did not *really* read it,
i.e. the declarations were not made. When I put in the files directly
into 'include', it worked.
