Hi,

I'm always editing on the console, since I work the fastes over there. I
also control Povray from there and route the output to display :0.0.
When I want to look at the image I switch to the X server and look what
Povray is doing. Since I mostly render animations, I need to know what
frame Povray is rendering, to adjust my timings and so on. But to look
which frame Povray is rendering I need to switch back to the console to
look at the text output. Is there a way to put the current frame in the
titlebar of the image?

I'm using POV-Ray for Windows, and I too would like to have the current
frame number in the titlebar of the image and/or program.

Greetings,

Rune

Definitely a good suggestion. Shouldn't be that hard to implement, either.

Agreed. I'm working on it, along with other Unix-related enhancements. 
I'm likely to release a version of MegaPov soon that implements some of
the new bells and whistles.

  I always run povray from a xterm. I never use povray from a plain console.
