1. alsow path is very easy, just open file and flush there texture memory

2. it is impossible - as macro sholud create _new_ scene (discard all 
previous objects, lights, set new camera and render it).

3. only way is to prepare a little scene for rendering HF purposes, but 
imho it is little uncomfortable.

Assume that I want to implement it - where should I start - to dump 
pattern aaa,bbb { ... } array into text file after reaching keyword 
save_data ?
