Yes, I've already tried a bit and mixed a red, green and blue spot light
which gives also a lot of colours.

The diffract-examples partially render to some "unnatural rainbows"
as the colours do not flow in each other but are separated like with a line.
Especially new_diffract.pov. I am not yet shure what I need to change that.

However I thought I ask if someone has something like that already.

thanks
