// Persistence Of Vision raytracer version 3.5 sample file.
// File by Dan Farmer
// Demonstrates glass textures, CGS with box primitives, one of Mike Miller's
// fabulous marble textures, modified with an "octaves" change, and doesn't
// make a half-bad image, either. Interesting lighting effect, too.
