    \brief Handles Lights.

    A Light is one of the more important things in a 3D-environment,
    without it one sees nothing :)
    It is here for diffuse-, specular- and Bump-Mappings.

   A Light is a source that emits light rays (photons)

   <b>Usage:</b>\n
   First you have to get the Light Manager up and running by using LightManager::getInstance.
   This automatically initiates the GL_LIGHTING, and sets some default stuff about the light.\n
   Then you will create a new light using:
   \li int addLight(void);
   \li int addLight(int lightNumber);

   now you can operate on the light as follows:
   \li void setPosition(Vector position);
   \li void setPosition(GLfloat x, GLfloat y, GLfloat z);
   \li void setDiffuseColor(GLfloat r, GLfloat g, GLfloat b);
   \li void setSpecularColor(GLfloat r, GLfloat g, GLfloat b);
   \li void setAttenuation(float constantAttenuation, float linearAttenuation, float quadraticAttenuation);
   \li void setSpotDirection(Vector direction);
   \li void setSpotCutoff(GLfloat cutoff);

   These functions are preatty selv-explaining, but you can read about them below.\n
   If you want to fetch info, or the a Light use:
   \li Vector getPosition(void) const;
   \li Vector getPosition(int lightNumber) const;
   \li Light* getLight(int LightNumber) const;

   To redraw the light use
   \li void draw();
   
   and to delete one just use
   \li void deleteLight(void);

   for some nice output just use:
   \li void debug(void) const;

   You can also operate on the single Lights themselves, by first retreaving them with 
   \li Light* getLight(int LightNumber);
   \n
   and then using the same functions on this to change settings.
