I some days ago posted a question about possible wireframe modellers that
output POV-format. I got two answers:

One was the 3dpv Shareware package that is written by a french person,
and the other was a commercial package called 3d Workshop from Presidio
Software. Anyone know where I can get the address or phone no. of this
firm, and anyone with experience with this package?

The package you're thinking of is PV3D.  It looks like it has potential, but
when I run it, it behaves very strangely indeed (the top 80% of the screen
scrolls away, leaving bits of garbage behind).

Has anyone out there gotten it working?

Here I am, following up to my own article.  Anyway, it turns out that PV3D
conflicts with nansi.sys (an enhanced ansi.sys).  Not sure why or how, but
when I take nansi.sys out PV3D loads and runs.

Of course, PV3D still aborts with a "Run-time error" when I try to save a .txt
file, but that's another problem...
