I am really getting into scripting now that I am using Linux on a daily basis. I am curious about Houdini's pre and post render scripts and I am wondering how far you can go with it and what can be done with them.
Can anybody provide some examples of what you can do with pre and post render scripts and how they improve the render workflow? Thanx!

You can do pretty much do anything with pre and post. From sending a email about a render job being completed as a post render script. Or you can set up directory management in your pre/post render scripts. Like in the pre-render script you would make sure the directories you are renderering too exist. Then once you are done rendering you can use the post render script to delete temp files and what not.
Plus you can use the pre/post scripts to modifiy your Houdini scene. (Make sure display flags are correct etc.).
Its nice and flexible.
