But are you aiming at a specially named file (e.g. L3Colours.inc) that,
if it exists, automatically will be included ?
I.e. so that you don't have to specify "-ibL3Colours.inc" or
"-ibL3PPARTS\L3Colours.inc" each time you call L3P ?

Special files could also be L3Begin.inc and L3End.inc.

That all sounds perfect. I really like the idea of L3Begin.inc and L3End.inc as
well. I think that is a brilliant solution.

As for the inline/not-inline option, for L3Begin, L3End and L3Colours I think it
should default to inline but be changeable to a #include by an option. For me
I'd prefer to leave it in a .inc file as any change I make will affect all my
.pov files (hopefully for the better) but for others who may never change the
files it's probaly best to insure against problems.

One further option that would be nice is if you could get L3P to generate a .pov
file with all the primitives (including any extra declarations a user may make).
This would be a lot of work though. I may make a little perl script to do this.

Cheers,

Tim
