[Visualpython-users] povray

[Nils W. <nw...@ia...>]

Hi there,

Is there a way to call povray from python ?
I found out that it works for single input files

import os
os.system("povray quickres.ini'[640x480, AA 0.3]'+iwoodexample.pov +fn")

but how can I apply povray to multiple files woodexample001.pov -
woodexample009.pov ?

Any pointer ?

Nils

for filename in pov_file_list:
    os.system( "povray ... +i%s" % filename )

or, if the filenames are known to fit a pattern,

for n in range(count):
    os.system( "povray ... +iwoodexample%03d" % n )

(".pov" need not be specified in the +i field.)
