Hi, all
   Where can I find the defination of "VECTOR"?
Thanks

There is a section 'Scalar, color and vector stuff.' in frame.h

You should learn how to use VC++ or, if you're not using that, then your
operating system, to find files containing certain strings of text. Then you
could search for "#define VECTOR" or whatever corresponds to what you're
looking for.

Actually it's 'typedef DBL VECTOR [3];'.  

None the less searching all POV-Ray source files often is a useful method
for finding things.  Either use 'grep' or the multiple file searching
function of your favorite editor.

I recommend global for those who don't know it already :)
http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/gnu/gnu/global/global-4.5.tar.gz

$ global -x VECTOR
VECTOR            812 frame.h        typedef DBL VECTOR [3];
