no idea what I'm looking for, or at, but it is "pleasant to behold".  :-)

running into a different problem with 'povr_6e4ed6c2', the sky_sphere code was
originally copied from the docs, and the image renders fine with 'beta.2':

File 'o22.pov' line 207:
Possible Parse Error:
Unmatched {
File 'o22.pov' line 217:

208   pigment {
209     gradient y
210     color_map {
211       [.5 color rgb <.74902,.847059,.847059>]
212       [1  color rgb <.258824,.258824,.435294>]

215     translate -1
216   }
217   emission rgb <.825,.825,1>
218 }

also, I'm currently playing with some code where I frequently use the rtr
feature to get a quick "all-round" look at an object, and it works beautifully.
so good in fact that I'd love to be able to put that preview in a frame in a
frontend, any news on the '-win $id' thing?  :-)


regards, jr.
