You will need a stand-alone editor. Any ASCII text editor will do.

To start a render, you need to run POV-Ray from the command line and
specify the file to render as well as any options, like so:

    povray -kfi1 -kff100 myanim.pov

or

    povray myscene.ini

No, they're pretty outdated.

As I said, download the package from GitHub, then follow the
instructions in `unix/README.md` within that package.
