Antwort auf beide Frage: Nein. Siehe auch die Gruppe
"povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions" und die Webseite
<http://iki.fi/warp/povVFAQ.html> fuer mehr Informationen.

English Translation:
Are there German books about POV-Ray?
Does POV-Ray support multi-processors?

Answer to both questions: No. Refer to the newsgroup
"povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions" and the webpage
<http://iki.fi/warp/povVFAQ.html> for additional information.

Ich habe mich auf die offiziellen Versionen bezogen. PVM POV laeuft nur
unter Unix. Die anderen Angaben sind einfach zwei (oder mehr) gleichzeitig
laufende POV-Ray Tasks. Diese Art von "Multiprozessorunterstuetzung" hat
jedes Programm :-)

Because it looks a lot like your signature? ;-)

   Admittedly there was a certain humour in the development and idea behind
his signature line. That time of novelty though has long since worn off
and the majority of people view it as meaning less garbage cluttering up
an otherwise tidy news group posting.
  Now if it were something really useful like the answer to life, the universe,
and everything, or perhaps a clever Pov script that anyone could understand,
except maybe my wife, the novelty would endure and serve a purpose.

The opinions expressed here are my own and you may quote me on them.

Ja, hier versta ik dus geen woord van. Jij hiervan ook niet, dus wat dat 
betreft gaat het wel weer gelijk op. Wat zei je nou egenlijk?

I think it looks very disorganized. It is unclean in appearance.

It is of course my own opinion and you may accept that for what it is worth
to you.

  And you were the one who doesn't indent pov-code... ;)

  The code doesn't try to be clear. On the contrary: it tries to be as
obfuscated as possible and also as short as possible (everyone hates long
signatures) so that you can't see what does it do. Only when you compile
and run it you get the surprise.

But it is the answer to all that! You know: Warp! (in the imperative sense
of the word, as in: "Get the hell out of here!")....

So, here we go (excuses to Nieminen for stealing his method), not
nice, but clearly visible to all that know the question:


main(i){char*_="D#Fb$FA(FEBFgFH!Fh#F";while(i=*_++)
for(;i>1;printf("%s",i-70?i&1?"[]":" ":(i=0,"\n")),i/=2);}

And for those that don't, here's the output:

  []   [][]
 []   []  []
[]        []
[] []    []
[][][]  []
   []  []
   [] [][][]

(view it using a monospaced font)
