hello,

i'm just a newbie and all the braces { and } kinda confuse me.  i've
got some open source for a monitor that has a #version 1 in it.  it
runs ok by itself but when i try and use some other objects in a
scene with it, it complains about the version 1.  its nothing more
than a union, so i cut the version 1 code, and now it won't fly.  here
is the last part of the union which i believe is the problem:

box {<-140,140,-170>,<-130,395,170>}
  texture
    { pigment
      {
        image_map {tga "SCREEN.TGA"}
        rotate <0,90,0>
        scale <1,255,340>
        translate <0,140,-170>
      }
  ambient 0.3
    }

i'm getting this as an error:

monitor.inc:59:  error: No matching } in texture, ambient found instead.

i've tried messing with the braces, but i can't seem to get it
resolved.  i would appreciate it if someone could point out
my problem.  like i said, this snippet works with the #version 1
code.

thank you, miker
