Povmake is a basic front-end for the POV-ray raytracer, programmed as a shell-script.
One great feature of povmake is its built-in settings. The table below provides an overview of the default options, but they can easily be changed by editing the script. The sizes available include s[mall], m[edium], l[arge], and x[large] while the quality settings encompass low, med, high, and the extra option.
Here's a sample invocation of povmake: "slacker:~/src/povray$ makepov m x foo.pov". This would create a file named foo.tga and a logfile named povrun.log.
If you're seeking more control and information, povmake may not be the best option. But if you want a straightforward interface with minimal fuss, this software is worth considering. Overall, povmake is a great tool for anyone looking to jump into POV-ray raytracer without getting bogged down in a lot of details.
