This script object simulates a goniometric light source in workspace.

Updated to version 1.1
Available on the website. Most of the way down the page

This one is a little bit more automatic in that you don't need to manually connect the script to the projector light. The original idea was to use it with the Indigo Exporter, but it just didn't work out. The ies lights can be generated for truespace preview, but the Indigo only recognizes Area lights and mesh based lights.
