Here's a file that I used for a recent disco ball animation:
---------- discoball.ini (in same directory as discoball.pov) ----------
Width=320
Height=240
Antialias=On
Antialias_Threshold=0.3
Jitter=Off

Input_File_Name=discoball.pov

Initial_Frame=1
Final_Frame=75
Initial_Clock=0
Final_Clock=1

Cyclic_Animation=off
Pause_when_Done=off
Output_File_Type=T
------------------ end of file --------------

You can look up what these options do in the POV documentation (look
under "INI File Settings").  About the GIF animation stuff... there
are a few shareware GIF animators out there (I think M$ even had a
free one as part of some web-development promotional or something.)
