Hi everyone,

Is there a way to convert POV-Ray's internal representation of a 3D 
shape (i.e. one constructed using CSG) into another 3D format - perhaps 
mesh or mesh2?

Would it possible to write a POV-Ray macro to scan the surface of an 
object and create mesh2 type co-ordinates (would the trace function be 
able to do this?)

I'm just thinking it would be nice to be able to easily convert POV-Ray 
models to other formats :-)

Thanks in advance

Reuben
