DigiTape is a plug-in extension for POV-RAY v3.1. Using DigiTape, the motion
blur is created by averaging multiple frames. Currently, DigiTape is beta.
I'm
planning to add additional effects after this one works and is fully
verified.

Any constructive criticism is appreciated. I am particularly interested in
hearing opinions on how to create an automated installation program for the
extension and other motion blur algorithms.

The motion blue effect is generated by summing four frames (the current plus
three previous ones) of an animation. Each frame has a programmable
multiplier
applied to it before the summation. After an entire frame is rendered, the
oldest frame is dropped and a new frame is added.
