You really can't as an output function of POV-Ray. If you use a modeller
to design your scenes you can export to a 3D format that 3DWin can read
and it will allow you to create a wire frame representation but to do so
within POV-Ray itself would require you to make each individual frame
piece individualy. You can mimic the effect by using a proceedural texture
approach with clear pigment areas but it too would take a lot of extra
work to get everything lined up properly and I am not sure that it would
be possible with all shapes. Isopigments in MegaPov could help with this.
