Uh, what is ies data? And what do you mean by "light-planes"?

They are easy to learn...just read the documentation, and look at the 
macros which have been created. And if you have a specific problem, ask 
on these newsgroups.

BTW, this group is for discussion of programming, this post would have 
gone better in povray.advanced-users, povray.newusers, or povray.general.
