Wondering what megapov was all about, I picked up Stuart Gibson's megapov 02 dos for
Pentium from http://www.sgib.co.uk . Can anyone point me to a source for the extra
features please? I found a list of keywords using a hex viewer, but this doesn't realy
help on how to use them. Thanks.

A quick check with skyvase.pov on my dos celery 500 (using benchmark 640*480 etc):
Povray 3.1d, total trace time 00m 54s  :)
MPov02 for DOS Pentium, total trace time 01m 34s  :(

With the windows version of MegaPov available at Nathans site there is a
suite of html documentation files that comes with the distributions.
You might download it just for the examples and the docs.

The docs are bundled with the MagaPov.zip file. It's all or nothing I
am afraid.
