[Indic-dev] [pstricks for PovRay] Forbidden control sequence in \write

Mon, 4 Nov 2002 02:37:40 +0530 (IST)


While trying to modify pdftricks to include povray's code, I was able
to produce correct source file for povray, but I could not understand
errror appended below. Modified pstricks.sty file and a source file
rai.tex are also appended.

Can any one point out mistake?
