Please whoever is responsible make it clear in the macintosh README file
that the include directories ( ,/, ./include, ./ini at least) have to be
specified through the preferences file dialog (which also is not in the
standard macosx place) for any rendering to occur. I spent about an hour
playing with .povrayrc and absolute paths until finding out this little one
which is absolutely essential to enable rendering.
Also, why absolute paths have the folders separated by ':' and not by '/' as
in all unix platforms? If this is the author's choice or some inherited
feature, please make it also VERY clear in the macintosh README file.

Thank you.
