Hi, Chris.
I think that is a documentation error.
I have document files for Performer programming which is developed by
Silicon Graphics. In the document, there's a example code for adding
lighting (Page 6-30). It is as follows.
/* high noon */
pfLightPos(sun, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
Now ... \|/
--O-- Sun
