Hello,

is it possible to make povray read a scene from stdin?
What i want to do is somesthing like
'program_that_delivers_povray_output | povray -Istdin'

thanks,
	Johannes

'povray +I- <...>' works fine on my System. The povray doc reads:

"If you use "-" as the input file name the input will be read from
standard input. Thus you can pipe a scene created by a program to
POV-Ray and render it without having a scene file."

Bye,
