(...) When you really get into POV-Ray, you have to deal with multiple files. If you ever include a graphic as a texture, or a height field, there is nothing you can do. You can't combine an image into a text file and have it work well. If you have (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
