Every once in a while, I come across an image on the web produced with
povray and then it says something about using a programming language
such as basic or c. After a quick browse through the sections of the pov
docs I didn't see anything obvious on why or how this is done. Can
someone throw me an IP adress that may have some info on this? Thanks
alot for any information.

I don't have a URL for you, but after your description I could think of two
things:1. Going into POV-Ray's code itself and customizing it (that would be
C) - but I don't think this is what you were asking for.
2. Write a program (in any language) that outputs a POV-script. You know,
like having a little BASIC program writing lots of random spheres into a
script and so on. I guess these people you mentioned used other programs to
generate POV-scripts whenever the POV-language was inadequate or too
unwieldy for the task.
Well, those are my guesses.
Greetings, Johannes.

The second is what I am inquiring about. Thanks. I found some BASIC
source that I am going to look at to see what goes on. Have a good one.
