I've written the basic particle system requested. Still have to write a little
example.
There's only one (quite serious I fear) problem. It always crashes with the present
beta (works fine with MegaPov). Surely a bug.
So, there are two options:

1) I could post the code 'as is', but it wouldn't be that useful without a little
explanation (though it's very simple), and you'd have to use MegaPov (no particular
MegaPov feature is used, as I said, it simply crashes with the present beta for
Windows.)

2) I could wait and write a little tutorial to explain how this simple system works.

Nothing prevents me to post the code first and to write the tutorial afterwards, if
you find it fine :)

Would you like the system to handle animations too?

I'm happy with a Mega version for now. Send it on over!
Thanks,
Dennis

Fine. Posted to p.b.s-f. I can write a tutorial if requested.
Cheers.
