About the patch you mention, i don't do any directory changes,  those
temporal files are quite nice, what MPIPovray does is to read the file
locally (no sending files) and sends the proper mathematical functions to
calculate.

Does the patch nees extra software to work? (i am quite intrested) o just
kpovmodeler)
