Don't know about MACs but this works on PCs and SGIs:
-------------------------------------------------
Exporting Povray scripts from PyMol
The choice of the renderer is defined by the variable
"ray_default_renderer". A value of 0 points to the internal renderer, a
value of 1 creates a povray file called "tmp_pymol.pov" in the current
directory.
To change the setting use:
cmd.set('ray_default_renderer',1)
Alternatively use this script:
util.ray_shadows('heavy')
(header,data) = cmd.get_povray()
file=open('povray.pov','w')
file.write(header)
file.write(data)
file.close()
Thanks for the original contributors.
Happy PyMOLing
