I was browsing through the MegaPOV 0.4 source code and came across
"PostCartoonPatch" in the tokenize.c file. It mentions "cartoon" as a
reserved word. What is this and how is it used?

thanks,

  If a keyword is reserved it doesn't mean it's functional already. It might
be an idea to be implemented in the future.

That much I understand. Can anyone confirm whether this function is
implemented in MegaPOV 0.4? Is there an easy way to find out myself in
the future? I suppose enough digging through the source would tell me,
but I'm not sure where to look. I'm not used to reading POV source
code. I was just looking through the reserved words recently, because
I like to specially color code the unofficial commands and parameters
in my editor. 

later,

This was a feature I was working on, but didn't finish testing and
debugging.  All of the code for it is enclosed in "#ifdef" statements, so
the keyword is not currently reserved.  It is a post-processing filter which
is supposed to make the output look cartoonish.  I just came up with the
idea one day and wanted to play with it, but I didn't get it done.  Maybe
sometime in the future.  You can use what I've already done if you recompile
it and add "#define PostCartoonPatch" to frame.h
