  How do I animate?

I know how to animate using the POVRAY.INI file.  The problem is that I
have one file that I want to ONLY RUN ONCE!!!!! as it generates my INC
of positions for my animation.  Then I have a file that I want to run
several times as it ticks through the frames.

Twice this morning, I have forgotten to edit my POVRAY.INI file back to
make pov only run more than one frame.  Thus, after a long computation,
it rewrites the whole thing over from scratch!

Q: Is there someway within the file to set up the number of frames?  Do
I have to edit POVRAY.INI each time?

The docs again on this issue seem to be preaching to the coders.  >:-p
I see  phrases that I'm used to editing in my POVRAY.INI file, but no
indication of where to type or use the phrases.
