I'd go with what Janet said, and use Wings > PoseRay > PoV-Ray.
There's nothng you can't do with Wings.

How about combination of echo, cat, grep, tail, head? ;)
Well yes, I usually write my SDL with Vim and Nano.

That works. Long command lines with lots of pipes. ;-)

I haven't gotten to that point yet - most of what I do is just goofing
around with a modeller myself (like Moray, Blender, or Wings) just to see
what I can come up with visually. One of these days, I'll sit down and
learn SDL properly so I can do that.
I was once an engineering student, had to learn drafting and CAD, and most
of the time that helps me. But I mentioned "vi" because (a) it's my
favourite editor, and (b) the comment about "there's nothing you can't do
you can't do with vi or cat > file.pov for that matter, it's just a matter
of patience.
But I also think there are probably things you can't do with a modeller,
like write procedural POV code for (for example) certain types of textures. :-)

Heh. My idea of point was that while Vi is a good text editor, it's not
a modeler (which was asked;). Yes, theoretically you can do any
POV-scene with Vi (as well as CSG), but a modeler is a lot easier to
think visually while doing the scene (like Poser is a darn lot easier to
create a person than with CSG). IMO the best set would be a modeler,
which reads SDL so you could write SDL / walk the mouse in turns.

Yep. That's why a combination would be best/easiest/most efficient (if
it's possible, please let me know). It's already possible to create the
scene with modeler and tweak it with pure SDL.

True, I kinda diverged there a bit. :-) But yes, that's exactly the
reason I prefer to use a modeler rather than write straight SDL.

Yes, some of the best scenes I've seen look to have been done that way.
