LibAn8 is a C++ .an8 files loader library which developpers can use to load .an8 files in their applications (3d files converters, OpenGL or Direct3D games, renderers, ...).
New features of LibAn8 v8.5.18:
# The LibAn8 source code is released under a BSD-style license.
# Several memory leaks fixed.
# AN8XMeshFromSphere() optimized.
# New AN8X math functions added.
# CreateSmoothNormals() added (still alpha).
# GLAn8Viewer Updated (it recquires the last version of GLGX)
The source code of a very basic OpenGL viewer is available in the SDK. It depends on the GLGX library (an utility library like D3DX for Direct3D):

The viewer is also available as separate download (the .exe file)

Thanks! Unfortunately I can't make use of these tools (yet), but it's great seeing the progress :)
Just a note, you may want to change the Ani2Pov link you posted to the english (http://texel3d.free.fr/projets/ani2pov/index.html) version.
