Ok, I'd need to launch it from a Java application - seems that I have to 
check which OS it's running on first :-(

So beside the common commandline options (+H, +W, etc.) I'd use

"+I<filename>" for the linux version

and

"\RENDER <filename> \EXIT" for the vindows version.

Is this how it's designed to be?


The Mac section in the online docs says:
"You cannot control POV-Ray for Mac OS directly via command-line options."
[ http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/759/ ]

...now, what does that mean? Can't I start POV-Ray from an external 
application (a modeler) on the Mac?!?
