I know that L3lab gives warning about the feature being untested, when
you export to povray from it, but I've used it a lot of times, with
expected results everytime, and it is far easier to use than l3p if
you're not that familiar with shell commands. Ok there's l3pAO, but
just remember that it needs LDAO, and it looks like there's a really
nasty version of that out there:)
Out of curiosity, have anyone had any problems converting with l3lab?
