No worries... it's a typo in the docs (Green and Blue swapped).

Of course, it _should_ use the neato GREY_SCALE macro that I created in
colour.h.  ;-)

I noticed you didn't add the Windoze specific bufix I posted to p.windows
relating to the editor dlls.
Was that because you did not see the message or just didn't have time??

Tony,

Send it to me and I will post it to our collection site for
evaluation.

If I am not mistaken the Windows interface used in megapov is the
same as the one used in the official version of POV-Ray v3.1g.
Any changes to that will have to come from Chris Cason, officially,
before incorporation in megapov.

But I could be wrong.

Yep thats right

Why? - as far as I know there will be no more official 3.1 releases after 3.1g
& therefore the gui will not be updated until 3.5 unless Nathan or Jetlag
updates the gui for their patches.

I don't see why patch developers can't add gui/system specific bugfixes & new
features.

BTW Chris did say he has incorporated the bugfix into POVWin 3.5

I did not see your message until now.  Also, only a few of the updates for
0.6 were mine.  The vast majority of them were by Yvo and others, because
I've been spending my time on POV 3.5 (and "Real Life").

I've had way too much of that "Real Life" thing lately.  Have you found anyone
who's looking for a real life who might be able to take some of it off my hands?

I'd be willing to sweeten the pot by donating 50% of my real life.

It's in povray.text.scene-files. "Toroidal height field source (possible 3.5
demo scene:)", dated 2/10/2000. Get the one I posted later on 2/11/2000 as a
reply to that one.

Found it. Now I just need to find out if it is compatible with
the 3.5 features and syntax.
