Don: (...) Good to know. (...) I think they are called "look_at" and "location" in POV-Ray. (...) It would be fine if you could make something equivalent to: camera { sky <0, 0, 1> up <0, 1, 0> location <0, 0, 528> look_at <0, 0, 0> } in POV-Ray. I (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) It looks like both "-j" and "-J" turn on the perspective projection from the command line. Otherwise it defaults to the orthographic projection.

Could somebody please make a utility that calculates and creates a boundary box for a .dat file?
