Basically,  in an .ini file you specify the number of images to produce from
your .pov file.  In this file you also specify a clock value - its starting
and ending values.  In your pov source, use the clock variable to translate,
scale, or rotate your objects.  A statement in your pov source may look like
this:

box{<-1,-1,-1><1,1,1> rotate<360*clock,0,0> texture{yada..yada..yada..}}

If you specify in the ini file 360 frames, a clock start of 0 and clock end
of 1, the box above will rotate in a complete circle throughout the 360
images generated.

For those of you well versed in the animation techniques, I know this is not
efficient and the same can be done with 90 frames and using 90*clock....

Good luck Joseph.
