Guess which two are mine.

Use +kff200 for a joined T and J PLL animation.

You can get POV-Ray here. It’s a great program (although raytracing animation is far from real-time, so I’m going to try to port the code to OpenGL).

December 6: The Rubik’s cube animation system is now capable of parsing an algorithm as a string in the familiar URFLBD format (with 2, ‘, 2′[='2] suffixes). I could add slice turns and double-layer twists, if requested…
