I'm a programmer.  A compiler is outside of my normal range of coding, though I
have written various configuration (and similar) scripting languages (but that's
interpreted not compiled).

I probably have seen the raytracer you mention, but I can't quite remember what
it was like right now.  I mostly go right to "Image Digest" and don't always
read the posts (but I have seen your name often :-) )

If you want to see some of the stuff I've done, you can see some examples on my
youtube channel (mostly tutorials lately, and my earlier videos contain many
raytracings) (my channel only has 42 videos, so it wouldn't take long to look
through): <www.youtube.com/MrMcSoftware/videos>

An x86 assembly raytracer I wrote (not the one I first posted about) is covered
in my assembly language videos and a little bit in my "My Projects: Pathtracing,
Raytracer (x86 Assembly, Amiga, Linux & Windows), Tesla Coil Use & More" video -
it was based on my assembly raytracer I wrote for a CPU I designed and first
appeared in my video "My Logisim CPU / Computer - Now With Floating Point (FPU)
(Fractals, Raytracer, Etc.)".  And a GLSL version can be viewed on my shadertoy
page: <www.shadertoy.com/user/mrmcsoftware>
Sorry about all the self-promoting, but they all are along the same lines we're
talking about - unorthodox ways of doing raytracing.
