Made it so icalc and rcalc search RAYPATH directories for *.cal files given on command line. This simplifies script writing and makes these utilities consistent with other tools in Radiance. + +Added triangulation routine to handle convex polygons in obj2mesh. + +****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** +Made backface visibility apply to all material types, including +transparent and translucent materials (except dielectric and interface). +This makes the option useful in cases where adjacent trans surfaces +are placed next to each other by a modeler that only understands +volumetric objects. + +Changed dctimestep so that output matrices (-n > 1) are preceded by a +header, and added support for float and double output formats with -o[fd]. + +Introduced eplus_adduvf program to compute user view factors for EnergyPlus. + +Changed image-plane sampling in rpict to use Hilbert curve, which gives +less of a brushed/striped appearance to output pixels with -u- (default). + +Added ltview and ltpict Perl scripts contributed by Axel Jacobs, inspired +by Rob Guglielmetti. + +Added header variables for NROWS, NCOLS and NCOMP to help standardize +matrix files. This functionality has been incorporated into +rcollate, gendaymtx, and dctimestep. + +Created rmtxop utility to operate on multi-component matrices. This +facilitates some daylight matrix calculations, and provides a general +tool for manipulating matrix data.
