Yes. It's an ugly hack, but it works in most cases. Not all. It's not
implemented in MegaPOV, and I don't ever expect it to be, because it goes
*all* over the lighting code, variables going every which way, and it's ugly
and spaghetti coded. It basically uses the algorithm that's in the FAQ near
the end of the POV-Ray documentation.
