When Moray exports to .pov it simply writes into a text file that happens to
have the .pov suffix. That is the default suffix PoV-Ray for Windows looks
for. You can then edit this file to your liking in basically any text editor
but you have to keep in mind that any manual changes to it cannot be
(automatically) fed back to Moray and will be lost if you export from Moray
into the same file again.
Hope it helps.

I can't seem to find where to export From Moray to a .pov textfile? Is there a
seperate program or Moray option? I'm sorry if this is an obvious question

Choose Render>Export from Moray's Menu. This will create a .pov and .inc
file in the directory you have selected in the Render Options dialog
("directory for POV files", moray\povscn\ by default).
