Attached is a cylinder bent around a circular arc.

How did I get the texture to follow the bend?  Easy: I spent 3 days
throwing spaghetti at a wall until all of it stuck.

I have to do this every time I use the cylindrical warp.  I can explain
all about how POV-Ray handles gamma and sRGB, but warp { cylindrical }
is still black magic to me.

The code will be in the next major release of DeskLamp.
