From the shell prompt, render the scene with:
povray +I file.pov
This will render the scene according to the default settings in
povray.ini or ~/.povrayrc. There are alot of command
line options. Please refer to the manual for a complete overview or just type
povray without any options. Just to name a few:
povray +I file.pov +A
Render the scene with (default) antialising enabled. Removes staircase effects
along edges. Rendering takes longer, but this is definitely recommended
for final images.
povray +I file.pov +W1000 +H1000
Sets the image size, overriding settings in ~/.povrayrc. I usually
render everything at 500x500 initially, and increase the size for the final
images.
povray +I file.pov +D +SP4
Display images during rendering, first a coarse (4x4) approximation, then a 2x2
and then the final image. (I have this in my ~./povrayrc because I find
it very useful)
