# Line 18 | Line 20 | light source distributions for each surface, replacing
20   secondary sources whose contributions can be computed more efficiently by
21   .I rpict(1)
22   and
23 < .I rview(1).
23 > .I rvu(1).
24   This type of optimization is most useful for windows and skylights which
25   represent concentrated sources of indirect illumination.
26   .I Mkillum
# Line 27 | Line 29 | directional distributions.
29   These are best handled respectively by the ambient calculation
30   and the secondary source types in RADIANCE.
