-<p>The <code>tiling</code> pattern creates a series tiles in the x-z plane. See the image below for examples of the twenty-seven available patterns.</p>
-<p>The syntax is as follows:</p>
-<pre>
-pigment {
-  tiling Pattern_Number
-  [PATTERN_MODIFIERS...]
-  }
-</pre>
-<table class="centered" width="580px" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="10">
-<tr>
-  <td>[[Image:RefImgTiling2.gif|center|560px<!--centered--->]]</td>
-</tr>
-<tr>
-  <td><p class="caption">The various tiling patterns annotated by tiling pattern and tiling type respectively</p></td>
-</tr>
-</table>
-<p>For each pattern, each individual tile of the pattern has the same beveling as the other tiles in that pattern, allowing regular caulking to be defined. For a pattern with N tile types (where N is the tiling type noted in the above image) the main color/texture of the tiles are at x/N with x going from 0 to N-1, and the extreme color/texture caulk for these tiles are at (x+1)/N. The bevel covers the range between these two values.</p>
-<p>To begin exploring the <code>tiling</code> pattern right away, see the distribution file <code>~scenes/textures/pattern/tiling.pov</code>. It uses obvious colors to better illustrate how the feature works, and you can optionally write it's <code>color_map</code> to a text file. Once you get a feel for the break points, you can always define you own map!</p>
