i know this may sound silly, but does anyone use povray solely as their
scripting language? i actually had the crazy idea of doing this since i
know povray better than perl. perhaps using povray (instead of perl or php)
in conjunction with apache for dynamic html content?

The other day I gave serious consideration to sitting down and writing a 
web server with POV-Ray's SDL...

(But then, of course, I realised that POV-Ray doesn't have any way to 
access ports and such things, so this is clearly impossible!)

I don't know nearly enough about bash to do that...

This is the wrong group for this question.  This group is for discussion of
the POV-Ray source code.  Questions about using the POV-Ray scene
description language or ray-tracing in general should be asked in either
povray.general or povray.newusers.  Off-topic questions should be asked in
in povray.off-topic.

You should seek medical attention ;)
