....or, "The Hard Way to make Flash Animations"

A big THANK-YOU to the developers.  Some time ago I was trying to figure out how
to emphasize the outlines of objects (actually for clearer technical
illustrations), but put it aside when I realized I needed something like what
the aoi and normal patterns provide.  Now, here they are!

Any chance of adding a "curvature" pattern?  (A central difference of the slope
from two parallel rays should do it.)  This pattern might also help those who
like to dirty up their crevices and polish down their edges.

[Thanks to Chris B for the very nice pumpkins in the object collection.]
