# Line 1211 | Line 1211 | have been getting faster and faster over the years.
1211  
1212   Fixed bug discovered by Marcus Jacobs where oconv was dumping core
1213   when it was given too many modifiers.
1214 +
1215 + Fixed problem with rpict where it was drawing illum sources badly
1216 + even when they weren't all that small in the view.
1217 +
1218 + Added in(i) function to rcalc for more flexible channel evaluation.
1219 +
1220 + Replaced all calls to vfork() with regular fork() calls.
1221 +
1222 + Fixed bug in glarendx for dgr calculation with sources behind view.
1223 +
1224 + Added -p option to histo to print percentages/percentiles r.t. counts.
1225 +
1226 + Added a source occluder cache to accelerate shadow testing.  This
1227 + can save up to 50% of the calculation time in scenes with many
1228 + light sources, especially ones containing large occluders.  This
1229 + optimization may be tuned or switched off with the -DSHADCACHE=N
1230 + compile switch, where N is the resolution of the shadow cache, or
1231 + 0 to disable it.  Since this is purely a time vs. memory trade-off,
1232 + I decided not to make it a new command-line option.  (We already
1233 + have plenty.)
1234 +
1235 + ****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ********
1236 + Changed the following command names to avoid conflicts:
1237 +        rview -> rvu (with symbolic link back to rview)
1238 +        calc -> icalc
1239 +        lam -> rlam
1240 +        gencat -> gencatenary
