Povray linux, how?
hi,
im using ubuntu dapper (6.06),
installed povray 3.6
and i have no idea how to make it render
i know its a command line only app on unix systems
i've read the "man povray" file, didnt get any of it
i've read the error output, im lost
I'm quite a noob with commandlines :/
so, my question is:
"what command do i need?"
ilia@ilia-desktop:~$ povray -/home/ilia/Desktop/toribash-linux-2.22/raytrace/screenshot-14-10-04-18.pov -test.JPEG
