This is the Watcom C compiled version of POV-Ray 2.2, it replaces the
wccpov.zip file I uploaded a few days ago, which was fully functional,
but I had forgotten to change the "FILL IN YOUR NAME....." in first
few lines POV-Ray outputs to my E-mail address and name. I have been
told that the POV-Ray team dislikes such copies and that's why I
release this version.
Besides that, I have included the file POVLEGAL.DOC into the archive,
which is a good thing according the the POV-Ray team. I'm sorry for
your inconvenience.
Now the informations from the old wccpov file. It's a Watcom C compiled
version of POV-Ray 2.2, which was about 40-50% faster than the Intel
Code Builder version from the POV-Ray team with everything I tested.
However, it's slower than the GNU C version I uploaded, too, but that
version (the GNU C one) supports only VESA true color video modes. So
you may want to choose this version, although it is slower. It's not
that much slower, you should try both and then decide which one you
like. Your mileage may vary. I have been told that there are cases where
the Intel Code Builder version is faster than Watcom C (but I can't
believe that...).
