SunOS

Required hardware and software:

A Sun SPARC processor and at least 4 meg of RAM.

About 6 meg disk space to install and 2-10 meg or more beyond that for working space.

Graphic file viewer capable of viewing PPM, TGA or PNG formats.

A text editor capable of editing plain ASCII text files.

SunOS 4.1.3 or other operating system capable of running such a binary (Solaris or possibly Linux for Sparc).

Required POV-Ray files:

POVSUNOS.TGZ or POVSUNOS.TAR.GZ - archive containing an official binary for each text-only and X-Windows modes. Also contains sample scenes, standard include files and documentation.

Recommended:

8 meg or more RAM.

If you want display, you'll need X-Windows or an X-Term.- preferably 24-bit TrueColor display ability, although the X display code is known to work with ANY combination of visual and color depth.

Graphic file viewer capable of viewing PPM, TGA or PNG formats.

Optional: The source code is not needed to use POV-Ray. It is provided for the curious and adventurous.

POVUNI_S.TGZ or POVUNI_S.TAR.GZ - The C source code for POV-Ray for UNIX. Contains generic parts and Unix/Linux specific parts. It does not include sample scenes, standard include files and documentation so you should also get the executable archive as well. You will need a C compiler and (optionally) the X include files and libraries and knowledge of how to use it. Although we provide source code for generic Unix systems, we do not provide technical support on how to compile the program.
