57   The
58 + .I \-A
59 + option tells
60 + .I gendaymtx
61 + to generate a single column corresponding to an average sky
62 + computed over all the input time steps, rather than one
63 + column per time step.

65 + The
66   .I \-c
67   option may be used to specify a color for the sky.
68 < The gray value should equal 1 for proper energy balance

69   The default sky color is

118 + The
119 + .I \-O1
120 + option specifies that output should be total solar radiance rather
121 + than visible radiance.
122 + The
123 + .I \-h
124 + option prevents the output of the usual header information.
125   Finally, the
126   .I \-v
127   option will enable verbose reporting, which is mostly useful for
