44   These modifiers are usually materials associated with
45   light sources or sky domes, and must directly modify some geometric
46   primitives to be considered in the output.

# Line 74 | Line 87 | this will be applied to a "%d" format in the output fi

88   The actual bin number is computed at run time based on ray direction
89   and surface intersection, as described below.
90 + If the number of bins is known in advance, it should be specified with the
91 + .I \-bn
92 + option, and this is critical for output files containing multiple values
93 + per record.
94 + Since bin numbers start from 0, the bin count is always equal to
95 + the last bin plus 1.
96 + Set the this value to 0 if the bin count is unknown (the default).
