Fixed bug in matrix output of genBSDF introduced shortly before 4.1 release. + +Made rvu more responsive in multi-processing mode when changing parameters. +Explicit "new" command not needed to show changes, because it goes back +to "immediate mode" once something is changed. Processing will be slow +but response time quick until next "new" command. + +Fixed major bug in transmitting proxy material sampling. + +Patched cmake build tools (changes by Zack Galbreath). + +Removed requirement for pflip -h to be given input file (can pipe from stdin). + +Added "Number of processes" slider to trad "Action" pane to control rad -N +option for rvu and batch rendering. + +Added -c option to vwrays to repeat pixels for rtcontrib. + +Reworked rtcontrib program and renamed to rcontrib. New version runs much +faster, especially on multiprocessor systems, and doesn't require as much +memory. No longer calls rtrace; instead does all the work itself. + +Added -d option to genskyvec to produce direct-only (sun no sky) vector. + +Added Ashikhmin-Shirley anisotropic BRDF model (ashik2) with help +from Nicolas Boneel. + +Added Ruby rewrite of objview.csh by Rob Guglielmetti. + +Fixed bug in reciprocity for tensor tree BTDF representations. Thanks +to Andy McNeil for identifying the problem. + +Added MNAME and ZNAME variables to ranimove for debugging & testing.
