Changes for version .103

  • will now use upsampled lower res noise by default. this is "about as good" in most cases, but renders much faster.
  • to disable upsampling (aka to render at natural image resolution), use -quality N+, eg "-quality 2+". current max is 3+. see docs regarding "quality" arg.
  • several effects like shadow and linear blur are now upsampled from lower resolution for performance
  • using -sphere will now create output as a 2:1 rectangular image
  • will now create output as a single-channel file, unless -clut was specified
  • removed noisemaker internal functions from perldoc
  • pruned optional exports to a single function, make()
  • changed -workdir to -outdir, which makes more sense
