Hi all,

I am using a heightfield in an animation that takes about 5 seconds to 
process for each frame. Is there any way to store the heightfield mesh 
in memory between frames, or perhaps write it to a file (although that 
won't provide much speed up I think)?

Perhaps it is just my ignorance and it is possible, but it would be 
really nice to be able to operate on POV-Ray's internal data structures 
directly using SDL.

Cheers.
