  [doc] quick ref tweak for normal (Message 1 to 1 of 1)

Version 3.5.beta.RC6.icl.win32

Noticed something while experimenting with normals.  When I specify a normal_map and a
slope_map in the same normal block, the
last one specified wins.  The Quick Reference needs a slight modification:

In section 10.1.10.5 Normal -
. . .
NORMAL_PATTERN:
    NORMAL_LIST_PATTERN |
    MAP_PATTERN [F_DEPTH] [SLOPE_MAP] |
    MAP_PATTERN NORMAL_MAP
. . .

I just removed the [SLOPE_MAP] that appeared after the NORMAL_MAP.
