Not sure what you're doing... your subject says Povtree, but your question
appears to be regarding the tomtree macro.

If you mean how do you call the macro on different tree files created by
Povtree, you have to include them just prior to declaring the tree, i.e.

#include "treefile#1"
#declare Tree1 = object {TREE}

#include "treefile#2"
#declare Tree2 = object {TREE}

#include "treefile#3"
#declare Tree3 = object {TREE}

Since the treefile calls the macro, TREE is redefined each time.

If you include all the treefiles at once, all you get is the last TREE
included.
