PVLIB 1.0 Library Description 6/22/92
-----------------------------
Purpose
-------
PVLIB was created to provide a standard set of C library func-
tions to simplify coding of programs which create scene files for
DKB Trace and/or POV Trace.
Description
-----------
The PVLIB library was written in Microsoft C. However the source
should be straight ANSI C, and you should be able to create the
library for other compilers with the source provided.
Usage
-----
Refer to the file PVLIB.REF for data structures and function
descriptions. No data is passed directly to PVLIB functions,
data structures are used to provide variables utilized by the
main program and the PVLIB functions. A sample program is in-
cluded which (hopefully) illustrates the use of pointers to the
PVLIB data structures. Also, the PVGEN program (look for
PVGEN10.ZIP on this BBS) utilizes the PVLIB library, and examina-
tion of the code might be helpful.

brary is given. Please include a copyright notice in any pro-

time!
