Dammit, and I had some important work to do...
Oh well, it will have to wait. Gotta see them photons in media!

No fractal patch included?

I think that would require a bigger version change, like 7.0.

I wanted to clobber those bugs, first (before potentially introducing more).
And I had already started on media photons.  Adding the fractal patch will
probably be in versio 6.2 (version 7.0 should hopefully include a bunch of
superpatch features... provided days start lasting 26 hours).

Btw, I still can't find any reference to the ini_option command in the
documentation.

Writing documentation is so much less fun than writing code.  Anyway, I'll
document it soon (it's on my to-do list).

  Thanx :)

  Btw, I compiled the newest version of uvpov in this Solaris Sparcstation.
Your //-comments caused lots of trouble. There's no easy way to automatically
replace them with /* ... */. One problem is that some of the //-comments
are inside a bigger /**/-comment block, so replacing the //-comments breaks
the bigger block.
  One possibility is just to automatically remove the //-comments, but that
might cause some problems too...
  You have some very tricky comment lines like the line 1028 in cones.c:

  //*/

  It's not trivial for a line-by-line filter to see whether that is the
beginning of an //-comment or the end of an /*...*/ comment.
  Also the http:// lines cause headache to the filtering.

  Would it be too much asked if you could fix this?

  The result was that I got most of the comments working by filtering, but
had to make some modifications by hand before it was completely fixed.

  The lack of ending newline at the end of radiosit.c also caused problems
with the filtering (I still don't know why).

I use MSVC++, and it doesn't complain, so I always forget that they are
their (old habits die very hard).  Anyway, I'll get rid of them for the next
release.  Sorry about that.

Maybe you should telll your compiler to treat .c files like .cpp files. At
least the official 3.1g source code compiles well using a C++ compiler, and
I suspect the same should work for Nathan's code.
