Thanks to James Lee for figuring +this out. + +Added script to convert to/from ICT's Poskanzer Float Map, which I don't +care to support officially due to its machine-dependent byte order. + +Fixed bug that caused incorrect reporting of non-surface in set when +mixing meshes and instances. (Thanks to Jack de Valpine for discovery.) + +Fixed innacuracy in calculation of diffuse transmission in the presence +of pure specular (Fresnel reflection) using "trans" material. Thanks +to Christoph Reinhart for pointing out the error. + +Made internal change to tone-mapping library to use structure pointer +rather than stack, making code re-entrant and more up to modern standards. + +Added -pd option to handle depth-of-field blur in rpict. This requires +that the view directon (-vd option) include focal distance information, +which is now preserved by the various view file routines, and reported +by the vwright command. + +Added DBLUR variable to ranimate and pmdblur script to handle simultaneous +motion and depth-of-field blurring. Thanks to Visarc for funding this work. + +Added setting of focus distance in rvu ("focus" command) and rholo +('f'/"frame" command). + +Changed default remote shell in ranimate to "ssh" rather than "rsh", +which has been abandoned on most Unix systems due to security issues.
