So, are you writing out a selection of *.inc files, and then #including them
in your animation on a frame by frame basis? I do it differently: I get POV
to write out a new .cl file as each frame is rendered, updating any changing
variables as the animation progresses, such as attach points etc.

BTW, got what I hope will be a great anim rendering as I type this.. I
thought it was time to place a cloth in a real scene. Watch this space :-)
