Remaining arguments to |

|
.I mkillum |
| 43 |
|
are passed directly to |
| 44 |
|
.I rtrace(1), |
| 193 |
|
as its alternate material. |

|
The default is |
| 195 |
|
.I l-. |

.SH EXAMPLES |
| 197 |
+ |
The following command generates illum's corresponding to geometry |
| 198 |
+ |
in the files "it1.rad" and "it2.rad": |
| 199 |
+ |
.IP "" .3i |
| 200 |
+ |
mkillum -ab 2 -ad 1024 -av .1 .1 .1 basic.oct "<" it1.rad it2.rad > illums.rad |
| 201 |
+ |
.PP |
| 202 |
+ |
The output file "illums.rad" would then be combined with the original |
| 203 |
+ |
scene geometry to create a more easily rendered composite. |
