(Thanks to Jack de Valpi 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. + +Fixed behavior of source primitive using illum with no alternate +material. These now become transparent so one can see the sky or +light-probe background for use in image-based lighting. Previously, +the user needed to specify the background glow as the alternate +material for a distant illum source to behave properly. (This still +works.) + +Fixed some minor problems and inconsistencies with 16-bit/channel +TIFF i/o in ra_tiff.
