	Define texel - a definition from Whatis.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-07)
		In computer graphics, a texel (texture element) represents the smallest graphical element in two-dimensional (2-D) texture mapping to "wallpaper" the rendition of a three-dimensional (3-D) object to create the impression of a textured surface.
		A texel is similar to a pixel (picture element) because it represents an elementary unit in a graphic.
		If the object becomes distant enough, or if one of its facets appears at a sharp angle with respect to the viewer, the texels may become so small that the essence of the pattern is lost in the observed image.

		To this day, the few remaining Texel Mutiny survivors are reluctant to reveal both the actual date and location of their 1945 transfer to Soviet custody and the identity of the Anglo--Canadian and Soviet military units and higher authorities which oversaw their transfer.

		The Texel rating formula is used now in France (plus Sweden and Finland), for all cabin multihulls, under the name of the Multi2000 rating rule, with some additions in the rule, not the formula, com-pared to the Texel rating as used in Holland.
		In Queensland, Australia, the IOMR rule for bigger cabin multihulls has been changed in the OMR rule, using the Texel formula as it is here too.
