works pretty well.

Wow, thanks.  I'll play with it a bit...

Say, does anyone know if there's any kind of FAQ or tutorial or even a *book*
in print for POV 3.1?  Everything I'm coming across is for 3.0, which isn't
very helpful in terms of the media stuff...

(...) The help files included with POV are pretty good. Of course you can also check www.povray.org. I have a book called "Ray Trace Creations" that I bought in a book store, which is about one inch thick and deals exclusively with POV. -Chuck (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
