Built on old glazing.cal function, which is actually incorrect so removed from the distribution. + +Fixed nuisance bug in ximage under some SGI machines that caused it to +choose an inappropriate visual and display incorrect colors. (Thanks +to Oskar Itzinger for debugging the problem.) + +Fixed long-standing inaccuracy of pcompos -t and +t thresholding options. + +Fixed bug in handling of views with tabs rather than spaces. + +Fixed bug related to alias of alias. + +****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** +Changed default sky turbidity in gensky from the original default of +2.75 to the CIE 110-1994 standard value of 2.45. Thanks to Marilyne +Anderson of MIT for pointing out this discrepancy. + +Added -o option to ra_xyze to produce original pixel values. + +Fixed bug in tracing of virtual sources, where intervening glazing was +not being accounted for properly. + +Added -h option to pcompos and pcomb to eliminate verbose headers. + +===================== +Version 3.9 + +Added -spec option to falsecolor to restore original spectral color scale. +Also added "-s auto" option to automatically set the maximum value. + +Added byte-swapping input and output to rcalc. + +Additional error-checking for source surfaces. + +Re-fixed bug in octree code that caused it to allocate 8 times as +much memory as it actually used(!) -- this was pointed out way back +in 1999 by Erik Reinhard and Erik Jansen, but the fix they gave me +got lost in the slightly borken release process at the time. This +should make a big difference in memory usage, especially for the +new mesh primitive.
