Hello all!

     Sorry, but I don't speak english very good...

     I need to redirect POV-Ray output to a textfile, but I can't do it with
traditional methods:

echo "Hello world">textfile

     When I use a same sintax to POV-Ray, the output file will be empty.

     I will use it to work POV-Ray + Perl + PHP scritps...


Thanks!!!!

Hi.

POV-Ray manual says:

Redirecting options:
       GI<name> or Create_Ini=bool or Create_Ini=file
              Write all INI parameters to a file named after the input scene 
              file, or one  with  the specified name.

       G[ADFRSW]<name> or <Stream>_File=bool or <Stream>_File=file
              Write  the  stream to the console and/or the specified file. 
              The streams are All_File (except status), Debug_File,
              Fatal_File, Render_File, Statistics_File, 
              and the Warning_File.

So to redirect output try this:

        povray <some_options> -GAtextfile
