On my home PC, I've got a working copy of DBWRENDR, a ray
tracing program by David B. Wecker. It produces nice images,
but - naturally - takes hours to days to do it. So, it would
be nice to run the program on the Convex C120 at our site,
which runs Unix BSD 4.2-4.3. I've looked all over the known
places, like the ones mentioned in Eric Haines' ftp sites
list. No success: many DBW's exist, but they either don't
compile or generate a `Floating point exception' when I try to
execute 'em, and die. I'm at a loss, as I don't even speak C
(horrible, eh?). Still, other ray tracers (QRT, DKB) work like
a charm. Any suggestions will be most warmly received .... If
you e-mail me, I'll summarize.
