Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how use anti-aliasing with povray on linux and I
can't find any documentation on this. I don't know if this is standard, but
I use a shell to render images. So my command line is:
povray file_name.pov +W1280 +H960
To use anti_aliasing how would I modify this command, and specify a
threshold and all that?
Thanks,
Sebastian

This is perfectly standard, and the command line options are described
in the documentation in section 2.1.2:
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/215/
Specifically, for antialiasing the documentation is here:
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/223/#s02_01_02_08_04
so your command line should look like:
povray file_name.pov +W1280 +H960 +A0.3
if you want a threshold of 0.3, for example...
Maybe it would be more convenient for you to put everything in an INI
file if there are settings you use frequently.
Hope this helps,

Besides what has been told, here are some useful combinations I use a lot:
+a : Basic default antialiasing (threshold 0.3, method 1).
+a +am2 : Basic antialising using method 2
+a0.1 : More accurate antialiasing, method 1
+a0.1 +am2 : More accurate antialiasing, method 2

command line options as warp put it are good, but I believe the best povray
antialiasing comes with "camera { focal_point fp blur_samples n aperture a
}"
play with these camera settings and you'll come up with some astounding
images. You don't need it to be all too blurry...
