Official Persistence of Vision(tm) V3.02c Amiga Release 30-NOV-97

This release of POV-Ray Amiga incorporates the following changes
since V3.0 release.

- updated EHB and Grey displays to allow AGA resolutions, (IE, 640x480 EHB)
     and Grey now supports 256 shade greyscale.

- Improvements and tweaks to CyberGraphics and Picasso96 displays.

- picture.datatype loader now allows you to create heightfields and maps
     using any image format you have a datatype for. (>OS3)
     
- considerably faster (up to ~40%) due to SAS/C 6.58 and completely 
     rewritten memory handling code.
     
- GUI is completely localized (only English and Italian catalogs so far...)

- GUI allows multiple sequential renders, in an editable queue.
