This is more of an issue with POV-Ray. It has everything to do with Macintosh Meta data. l3p creates files with no meta data. If you type: /Developer/Tools/GetFileInfo -c /path/to/.pov /Developer/Tools/GetFileInfo -t /path/to/.pov You get: "" Which (...) (23 years ago, 5-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) How does it behave badly? Does it fail to read some lines? L3P uses fgets and then removes trailing \n and \r, but perhaps this fails on "old" mac files, which I believe use the CR ending.
