If you are using the windows version, there is a "command line" box just next to 
the resolutions drop-list. Just add "+kffn" where "n" is the number of frames 
that you want. If you want a looped animation, you should add "+kc" in the same 
location.
Both can also be placed in an ini file.
If you have an ini file associated with your scene file, it should reside in the 
same folder, and have the same name exept for the extention: Myscene.pov and 
Myscene.ini.
