Folks,
I have developed a plugin for Moray and would like to be able to open a POV
file in the POV-Ray editor without rendering it.

Does anyone have a recipe for either:

1. An API call to perform this task?

or

2. The command line parameters to be executed assuming that there is no
POV-Ray API?

Neil

Depending on what exactly you want to do, a GUI extension might be what you
are looking for.  IIRC the information you need is included with the POV-Ray
source code for Windows.
