  Parse a ascii param file for particle process

Hi,

I have to parse large ASCII files that contain parameters for thousands
of spheres and their textures.
Such a ASCII file has a structure like

X   Y    Z     SIZE  COLOR
0.9 0.7  0.1  0.05  BLUE
0.8 0.6  0.1  0.03  YELLOW
....

Does anybody know how to parse such a file within a POVRAY script?

Another question, is there anywhere an example of how to store a
rendered image as a *.tif file?


Thanks a lot.    Oliver
