I assume that L3P allows the output to be any aspect ratio. The page is a
little confusing that way. However, it's trying to tell you how the camera
angle argument works, going on the assumption you haven't changed the aspect
ratio. Just substitute "width" for 4 and "height" for 3 in various spots.
Oh, and I'm not really sure of the significance of the viewing angle he chose,
but it appears to be 2 * atan((height/2) / 3).
