OK... I've read the docs... I've searched these newgroups... I know my mate
with POVray on a Linux box can do it... can anyone tell me how to get the
output file from POVray to be a PNG?

Section 5.2.2 of the docs imply you use a line like

Output_File_Type=+FN

But where? Apparently not in the .POV file. Or the pvengine.ini file. 'Cos
I've tried those.

The docs are excellent, but tend to assume you know what they mean a bit
(nowhere near as poor as Microsoft ones thank goodness).

Any help appreciated.

Thank you,

Paul H
