.SH DESCRIPTION |
| 17 |
|
|
.I Glare |
| 18 |
|
|
is an interactive script for executing programs used to locate |
| 19 |
|
|
glare sources and compute glare indices and visual comfort probability. |
| 20 |
|
|
If no |
| 21 |
|
|
.I glarefile |
| 22 |
|
|
is given, the program prompts the user for a one. |
| 23 |
|
|
If the file does not exist, |
| 24 |
|
|
.I glare |
| 25 |
|
|
asks the user some questions about the scene in question then runs |
| 26 |
|
|
.I findglare(1) |
| 27 |
|
|
to compute values to store in the file. |
| 28 |
|
|
.I Glare |
| 29 |
|
|
then presents the user a menu of available glare index calculations. |
| 30 |
|
|
After choosing a calculation, |
| 31 |
|
|
.I glare |
| 32 |
|
|
offers to store the result (usually not useful) or plot the information |
| 33 |
|
|
(but only for multiple glare angles). |
| 34 |

|
|
If you are creating a new |
| 36 |
|
|
.I glarefile, |
| 37 |
|
|
it usually works best to start with a displayed image for reference |
| 38 |
|
|
during the interrogation. |
