You should start a group called Dumb Questions, where anybody could ask how
to get their media or radiosity to work, without comments like "Read the

I have made small optimizations to the sig., now it fits in four lines:
light_source{20*y,1}#macro _(M,X,Y,P)#macro L(N,D)#if(N)#declare P=P+D;box{-
0.5,0.5translate z*mod(9*P.gray,4)pigment{rgb P}rotate 45*x+clock*y
translate
