This code is from a scene which I used to render a sky box for one of *my*
openGL programs:

camera {
 location 0
 right x
 up y
 direction z

 angle 90

 #if (frame_number = 0)
  look_at  x
 #else #if (frame_number = 1)
  look_at  -x
 #else #if (frame_number = 2)
  look_at  y
 #else #if (frame_number = 3)
  look_at  -y
 #else #if (frame_number = 4)
  look_at  z
 #else #if (frame_number = 5)
  look_at  -z
 #end #end #end #end #end #end
}

use it in an animation with 6 frames (0 through 5), and a square output
aspect ratio, and there are your 6 images which should be texture mapped to
squares surrounding the camera. You just have to rotate them right.
