<p align="justify">
Welcome to the Persistence of Vision Raytracer, v3.6. These files
contains detailed instructions and tutorials on POV-Ray, POV-Ray for
Unix, the POV-Ray scene description language, answers to Frequently
Asked Questions, and links to various internet resources related to
POV-Ray.
</p>
<p align="justify">
The documentation of POV-Ray for Unix can be viewed and navigated
in several forms:
<ul>
<li><a href="toc.html">Plain HTML</a></li>
<li><a href="frame.html">Version using frames</a></li>
<li><a href="idx.html">Index to search for keywords</a></li>
</ul>
Other versions including printing friendly PDF and Postscript
files can be found on the <a href="http://www.povray.org/">POV-Ray website</a>.
</p>
<p align="justify">
The topics are designed to be read in the order they occur in the table of contents,
so if you're a new user we suggest that you do just that.
</p>
<p align="justify">
Be aware that learning to use POV-Ray effectively takes some time and practice,
and that familiarity with the contents of this help file will save you a
considerable amount of both. We also strongly recommend that new users read the
Frequently Asked Questions list before asking any support-related questions on
the internet or other locations.
</p>
<p align="justify">
If you are looking for documentation of an older or newer version of POV-Ray,
please take a look at the <a href="http://www.povray.org/documentation/">main
