Several have already suggested the pov-ray stuff, but if you'd rather have sound than pictures, the LAM/MPI maintainer has parallelized both the BladeEnc MP3 encoder and a version of the OggVorbis encoder: http://www.mpi.nd.edu/~jsquyres/bladeenc/ http://www.mpi.nd.edu/~jsquyres/vorbis/ Both are likely to work well with LAM/MPI. :-) -- /* Dale Southard Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 925-422-1463 */ /* Computer Scientist, Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative */ /* L-550, Lawrence Livermore National Lab, Livermore CA 94551 */ /* AFF/I, SL/I, T/I, D-11216, Sr. Rig --- I'd rather be skydiving */
