Is this possible?

I found a great L-system program for linux called svlab but it exports 
rayshade or GLS (Open GL stream) files.

Are there converter or tricks for getting these files into POV?

Never mind, the author of T3DLIB sent me the source code which compiles on 
NT or Linux. Glenn has been very helpful and I will need to clear any 
copyright issue with him before sharing the end result (code). It has 
.ray->.pov I just need to work out how to use it, or mod the code so that 
it works with rayshade 4 files correctly.

T3DLIB was around 5-10 years ago.

DOH! T3DLIB won't work after all!!

So I still need a .ray to .pov converter.

Any ideas? Would a patch to POVRAY that used the parser out of rayshade 4 
do the trick. Is this sort of this possible AND allowed?

BTW has anyone else looked at svlab?
