Returns the string "tek".
EXAMPLES
The following LYMB script demonstrates how an image is
defined in LYMB. A camera is created which describes the
view. A light is created which provides illumination. A
geometric object is defined using a modeller and an actor.
Finally, a renderer is created and informed about the elements (camera, light, actor) that comprise the image. The
image is drawn by sending a render! to the rendering
instance.
