Maybe I'm missing a link on Ken's page, or maybe this doesn't exist? Is
there an example file some where demonstrating the use of angle-dependant
reflections, or is this an automatic thing with the SuperPatch?

It's not automatic. If there are any sample files, they are probably
included with the original wyzpov patch, available at
http://twysted.net/patchstation . I don't recall seeing any, though.

well its not a good example but the title image of my
webpage uses angle based reflection. due to it not being
a flat surface its difcult to see the effects. its a more
suttle effect
http://www.xenoarch.com
heres the texture info
the object for the water had an interior of
interior {ior 1.9}
since reflection_type of 1 requires an ior
to base its calculations.
#declare Water2T=texture{
pigment{
rgb <0.6,0.7,0.8>*0.6
}
finish{
ambient 0.25
brilliance 4
diffuse 0.5
metallic
specular 0.80
roughness 1/80
reflection_type 1
reflection_blur 0.01
}
}

Thanks, Ron. It wasn't real obvious what exactly the diff thingie was. As
I hadn't seen any changes in the pov help files I thought there wasn't even
a clue to what the syntax could be. <G> I knew that couldn't be! heh
I'm on the bright/dim roller coaster. :)
BTW, this patch really helped out my P51 traces and I am looking forward
to the inclusion of all of the patches in the next version of Pov.
Hopefully, angle-dependant reflections will make it in. All I can say is,
Wow!

There is documentation included with the superpatch, but it's in the form
of a Word97 document. I have someone reformatting it now, and whenever he
gets back to me I'll put the new docs and the new patch online.

Checking...
Aha! It's in my bin directory. Sorry to have bothered you! :)

That particular patch is a must IMHO. Water just doesn't look the same without
it.
It would be cool if they would add an camera angle-based pattern option too, so
you could have pigments and normals vary based on that. Then just about all
the bases would be covered in that respect. :)
