Wrote rxpiece tool that will render pictures using tiling and |

can handle different output formats and hyperspectral pictures. |

Added experimental source-skipping method to rpict for scenes |

with large number of light sources. Currently works with |

rcontrib and separate srcsamp image-processing tool. Controlling |

rpict options are -dS for skip bitmap specification and -dC |
| 2759 |

for correction coefficient image. Compile using -DSSKIPOPT |

to include this option. |

spectral input pictures. It also adds a -N option for multi- |

Changed default matrix representation to float rather than |

Altered rvu "origin" command to take shift amounts forward, |
