THIS PACKAGE INCLUDE A G3 VERSION

Ok, first of all you should modify your povray.conf to respect the read/write
dir (i really don't understand why they has created this protection..).
However.
The file included is configured in this way:

read* = %HOME%povray/3.6/include
read* = %HOME%povray/3.6/scenes/advanced/
read* = %HOME%povray/3.6/
read* = %HOME%
read+write* = T:
read+write*  = %HOME%
read+write* = Data:povray

where %HOME% is PROGDIR:

since a problem in a code (i'll take a look..) if you want load/write correctly
a file you must use:

PROGDIR: -> YourPhisicalPath:dir

look at last read+write. It is my progdir:

nothing else. In the directory there is a benchmark file that i have used to
benchmark the program. Look at http://www.haveland.com/ for references
benchmark, but don't trust in all results.. there are some Penium II that are
like an AthlonXp 64..

For G3 users. Since i cannot test it, please tell me if all it's ok.
