Hi all
moray.zip contains the output from moray of a simple scene. torus, camera
and a light.
it renders perfectly in megapov when in normal mode.
clunk.zip contains exactly the same, except I have added the version info to
the main pov and ini file, now it clunks with
torus { //Torus001
1.5, 0.5 rotate -x <----ERROR
untitled.pov:96: error: no matching } in torus, * found instead.
I am using winmegapov 0.7, on windows 2k.
manually editing the files in not an option, as I mentioned in the pbi
thread, I regularly do very complex nested csg creations, and it has not
been unknown for them to include hundreds of objects. there is no way in
hell I am going to edit that by hand. that is the reason I use a modeller.
as this only happens in mega pov when the version line is added, I don't see
that it is a problem that should be addressed by Lutz, as its is obviously a
mega pov bug.

^^^^^^^^
Bingo. It seems the "Version" parameter in the ini file is not meant
for text strings.
Read the message screen and you'll find out why!
Strangely enough, moving the semi-colon to the beginning of the line
fixes everything.

Is it really necessary for me to remind you that binaries attachments should
not be posted in a non-binaries group ?

Francois, you provided all the correct info, but in such a mysterious way
that I think I will get bug reports about this if I don't clarify:
The INI parser doesn't understand POV script. Therefore, when it sees the
"#version unofficial..." string, it thinks you're setting the version to
zero. As Francois points out, the message screen displays, "Input file:
untitled.pov (compatible with version 0)." Way back then in version 0, the
expression parser didn't support the "-x*90" syntax.
(Moving the semicolon to the beginning, of course, comments out the line in
the INI file.)

Sorry about being a bit sarcastic, but I hate it when people don't look
at the messages on their screens and double-check the docs. I hope I
didn't offend anyone.

Hence the smiley.
