same as using variables named 'a' 'd' 'asd' instead of shipSize, gunRadius 
etc... :) it's up to user how he would use tool.

macro is for users that use already finWater1() to have shorten syntax then 
finish{finWater1}. It realy matter if scene have i.e. 100 objects placed 
manualy (without loops / editors / etc)

-- 
#macro g(U,V)(.4*abs(sin(9*sqrt(pow(x-U,2)+pow(y-V,2))))*pow(1-min(1,(sqrt(
pow(x-U,2)+pow(y-V,2))*.3)),2)+.9)#end#macro p(c)#if(c>1)#local l=mod(c,100
);g(2*div(l,10)-8,2*mod(l,10)-8)*p(div(c,100))#else 1#end#end light_source{
