Does anyone know how to pass values from one file into
another? Almost exactely like "clock" in an .ini file.  The value
is  increased/changed in  one file, and used in another?

I'm trying to render different "legs" of an entire animation sequence,
and for each count of clock from 0 to 1, I need to render different
things, and I just want to set a variable in Clock ("leg" or something)
that would be passed into the main POV file, and based on this "leg"
value, render different legs of the overall animation.

either it's not possible, or if it is, I'm a dunce, and can't find info
on it in the documentation.

Try using the file I/O commands to save the data in a separate file.
