# Line 2269 | Line 2269 | pabopto2bsdf).  The other input types already sampled
2269  
2270   Added gendaymtx -A option to compute average sky over all the input
2271   time steps.
2272 +
2273 + Added ability to output color image from rtrace with any of -ovrx options.
2274 + Also fixed inconsistency of -oN output when ray casting versus full trace.
2275 + Before, it would flip normal to front side unless ray casting.  Now, -oN
2276 + always reports the unflipped normal.
2277 +
2278 + Changed rlam behavior so -iaN reads N lines from a stream rather than N
2279 + characters.  This seems more useful, since -ibN is somewhat redundant with
2280 + the old behavior.
2281 +
2282 + Created rsplit program as compliment to rlam and to handle more complex
2283 + rtrace output into separate files or streams.
2284 +
2285 + Improved getinfo so that it can also hop over resolution string with -c
2286 + and header elide mode.  Use +d to include resolution string in output,
2287 + and -d to elide with - and -c options.
2288 +
2289 + Made pvalue -u option mean "uncompressed" with -r.  Also, allow skipping
2290 + bytes on standard input.
2291 +
2292 + Created rcode_depth tool to convert to and from a 16-bit/pixel portable
2293 + depth image encoding that uses a mix of linear and reciprocal distance
2294 + with explicit representations of 0 and infinity.  Code for loading these
2295 + depth maps is in src/common/depthcodec.{h,c}.
2296 +
2297 + Created rcode_norm tool to convert to and from 32-bit/pixel portable
2298 + surface normal representation, matching the one in src/common/dircode.c.
2299 + Code for loading normal maps is in src/common/normcodec.{h,c}.
2300 +
2301 + Created rcode_ident tool to create indexed identifier files.
2302 + Code for loading these files is in src/common/idmap.{h,c}.
2303 +
2304 + Added -o* option to rtpict to produce layered images that handle most
2305 + output types from rtrace (colors, surface normals, distances, IDs).
2306 +
2307 + Created rcode2bmp script to create images from new rcode_* output maps.
2308 +
2309 + Improved efficiency of rmtxop in cases where matrix multiplication is
2310 + faster evaluated right-to-left, as when the final component is a
2311 + column vector.  Also added ability to apply trailing unary operators
2312 + (-t, and -s or -c) to resulting matrix.
2313 +
2314 + Added new depth, normal, and ID file types to radcompare.
2315 +
2316 + Added BigEndian= header line for automatic byte-swapping in rmtxop
2317 + and radcompare.  Doesn't work quite as automatically as it should
2318 + for pvalue -r, currently.
