Willian Padovani Germano 589ce4a005 BPython:
- based on a request by Campbell (he also provided a patch for scene.Layer) access to layers was improved a little, keeping the old method (ob.Layers is a bitmask) and adding the nicer one (ob.layers is a list of ints).  Done for objects and scenes.  House-cleaning: .Layer was renamed to .Layers (actually just using strncmp instead of strcmp, so both work, same done for Window.ViewLayers).
- finally committing patch by Ken Hughes to let .clearScriptLinks() accept a parameter (list of strings) to clear only specified texts.
- doc updates and fixes (JMS reported a problem in nmesh.transform() example code).

Thanks all who contributed.

# Blender.Lamp module and the Lamp PyType object
"""
The Blender.Lamp submodule.
B{New}: L{Lamp.clearScriptLinks} accepts a parameter now.
Lamp Data
=========
This module provides control over B{Lamp Data} objects in Blender.
Example::
from Blender import Lamp
l = Lamp.New('Spot') # create new 'Spot' lamp data
l.setMode('square', 'shadow') # set these two lamp mode flags
ob = Object.New('Lamp') # create new lamp object
ob.link(l) # link lamp obj with lamp data

The Lamp Data object
====================
This object gives access to Lamp-specific data in Blender.
@cvar name: The Lamp Data name.
@cvar type: The Lamp type (see the Types dict).
@cvar Types: The Types dictionary.
- 'Lamp': 0
- 'Sun' : 1
- 'Spot': 2
- 'Hemi': 3
- 'Area': 4
- 'Photon': 5
@cvar mode: The mode flags: B{or'ed value} of the flags in the Modes dict.
@cvar Modes: The Modes dictionary.
- 'Shadows'
- 'Halo'
- 'Layer'
- 'Quad'
- 'Negative'
- 'OnlyShadow'
- 'Sphere'
- 'Square'
@cvar samples: The number of shadow map samples in [1, 16].
@cvar bufferSize: The size of the shadow buffer in [512, 5120].
@cvar haloStep: Volumetric halo sampling frequency in [0, 12].
@cvar energy: The intensity of the light in [0.0, 10.0].
@cvar dist: The distance value in [0.1, 5000.0].
@cvar spotSize: The angle of the spot beam in degrees in [1.0, 180.0].
@cvar spotBlend: The softness of the spot edge in [0.0, 1.0].
@cvar clipStart: The shadow map clip start in [0.1, 1000.0].
@cvar clipEnd: The shadow map clip end in [1.0, 5000.0].
@cvar bias: The shadow map sampling bias in [0.01, 5.00].
@cvar softness: The size of the shadow sample area in [1.0, 100.0].
@cvar haloInt: The intensity of the spot halo in [0.0, 5.0].
@cvar quad1: Light intensity value 1 for a Quad lamp in [0.0, 1.0].
@cvar quad2: Light intensity value 2 for a Quad lamp in [0.0, 1.0].
@cvar col: The color of the light, with each rgb component in [0.0, 1.0].
This is an rgb tuple whose values can be accessed in many ways:
- as a tuple: lamp.col, lamp.col[0], same for 1 and 2.
- as a dictionary: lamp.col['R'], same for 'G' and 'B'.
- as an object: lamp.col.R, same for G and B.
@warning: Most member variables assume values in some [Min, Max] interval.
When trying to set them, the given parameter will be clamped to lie in
that range: if val < Min, then val = Min, if val > Max, then val = Max.
