Hi,

how can I start povray rendering with a script or from the console.

I just want to type in a  the executable, some properties, an ini file and a
pov file. The povray should start, render the image without displaying
anything and stop again.

Is that possible on win32 as well as an linux? Where do I find the
documentation?

Thanks for any hint

Heiko

Heiko,

I could be mistaken, but it's my impression that the command line 
functionality no longer exists in the versions for GUI os's such as 
Winders and Mac.  It's still there in the *nix versions, because some of 
us would be unable to run the program at all, if it weren't there.

In the Windows specific section 1 of the Help.  Just read it subsection by
sub section.
