I'm torn - using a single file in POV-Ray is definitely more convenient,
and 750 definitions don't seem to be too much overhead for the parsing
engine to chew on.  But for (later) updates to the wrapper library,
individual files would work better.

I think the 1:1 aproach would be better.

Hmm, thinking more about this, it could be done with individual files,
and then a single master file that includes all the individual wrapper
files.  The master file could be auto-generated whenever the
wrapper-library is updated.  That would be convenient for modelers,
easier for maintenance.

I'm somewhat tied up currently.

Heh! no kidding.. you always astonish me with how much you get done.

Thanks for noticing. :)  I always see where I drop the ball, not where I
actually accomplish something.
