/*** 
     For each light in the glueconfig, specify:
     TYPE { POINT, DIRECTIONAL, SPOT }
     HEADTRACKED { YES, NO }
     AMBIENT  <color>
     SPECULAR <color>
     DIFFUSE  <color>
     
     if not headtracked, specify:
     (note: pos for a directional light indicates direction.
     a value of <0,0,1> is a light shining in the -Z direction!)
     POS_X <x>
     POS_Y <y>
     POS_Z <z>

     if type is a POINT or SPOT:
     CONSTANTATTEN <0.0 to inf>
     LINEARATTEN <0.0 to inf>
     QUADRATICATTEN <0.0 to inf>

     if type is a SPOT:
     DIR_X <x>
     DIR_Y <y>
     DIR_Z <z>
     CUTOFF <0.0 to 90.0, or 180.0 to turn effect off>
     EXPONENT <0.0 to 128.0, 0.0 = uniform light distribution within the cone>
