1 degree practically corresponds to orthographic camera.
You can also use e.g. 0.01, the camera will be put very far away then.
See the effect of various camera angles at
http://www.hassings.dk/l3/l3p_ca.html
Perhaps I should add an example of 1 degree...

Yes, it is being mapped to the default 67, since IIRC POV only accepts
0<angle<180, other values are also meaningless.
In the coming L3P -ca0 is not accepted.
I check if the angle is positive and less than 180.
Also I've added
-co[<s>] orthographic camera, optional scalefactor
but I'm having trouble with the orthographic camera in POV 3.5,
in fact this is the only remaining issue for the coming release...
