+which calls bsdf2rad then rad with a few useful default views.
+=========================
-<
+Version 5.2
->
+Version 5.2 (Release October 8, 2018)
+Created psketch program to apply non-photorealistic rendering to selected
+objects, identified by modifier name(s).
+Fixed bugs associated with zero transmission in chromatic tensor trees.
+Thanks to Lars Grobe for pointing out issues.
-+
-+
+Added RAYPATH searching for -f options to genrev, gensurf, genworm,
-+
+bsdf2klems, bsdf2ttree, and pcomb.  This makes behavior consistent
-+
+with rcalc, calc, and rendering tools.
-+
-+
+Worked with Randolph Fritz to fix some issues with ies2rad and newer
-+
+IESNA63 standards.
-+
-+
+Resurrected original bsdf2rad test program, renaming it bsdf2rado. Still an
-+
+optional build in src/cv/.
-+
-+
+Fixed bug in rcontrib with virtual sources, where pretest was adding
-+
+to modifier accumulation buffers.  Reported by Mostapha.
-+
-+
+Added an "aBSDF" material type that explicitly checks for peak extraction.
-+
+Its arguments are the same as the original "BSDF" type, but without the
-+
+thickness parameter, as proxy geometry is not supported by this new type.
-+
+The old "BSDF" type no longer does peak extraction under any circumstances,
-+
+since this behavior is superfluous for proxied geometry.
-+
-+
+Added -r option to bsdf2rad (and bsdfview) to fix BSDF min and max range
-+
+for comparing BSDFs.
-+
-+
+Fixed issue with pfilt -m option and uneven image size changes pointed
-+
+out by Rob Shakespeare.
-+
-+
+Updates to evalglare and gendaylit from Jan Wienold, including new
-+
+colored sky option.
-+
-+
+=========================
-+
+Version 5.3
-+
-+
+Created radcompare program to compare Radiance tool output to reference outputs
-+
+during unit-testing.
-+
-+
+Fixed issue reading very large files (> 2 GBytes) in rcollate.
-+
-+
+Made picking function in rvu ignore transparent and void surfaces.
-+
-+
+Added -orRxX options to rtrace to enable output of mirrored and unmirrored
-+
+contributions and distances to enable new types of reprojections.  This also
-+
+cleaned up and unified handling of effective ray lengths throughout code.
-+
-+
+Bug fixes from Jan Wienold for evalglare.
-+
-+
+Changed indexed (numbered) output from dctimestep to start from 0 rather
-+
+than 1, to make it more consistent with expected input naming.
-+
-+
+Increased default sampling in bsdf2klems (-n option) to 1024.
-+
-+
+Fixed an issue noticed by David G-M that was causing genBSDF to bias
-+
+isotropic tensor tree samples resulting in subsequent failure of
-+
+peak extraction with "aBSDF" type.
-+
-+
+Introduced max() and min() functions to .cal library.
-+
-+
+Added random incident patch sampling to bsdf2klems to improve accuracy
-+
+with scattering interpolation representation input (e.g., from
-+
+pabopto2bsdf).  The other input types already sampled incident patch area.
-+
-+
+Added gendaymtx -A option to compute average sky over all the input
-+
+time steps.
-+
-+
+Added ability to output color image from rtrace with any of -ovrx options.
-+
-+
+Changed rlam behavior so -iaN reads N lines from a stream rather than N
-+
+characters.  This seems more useful, since -ibN is somewhat redundant with
-+
+the old behavior.
-+
-+
+Created rsplit program as compliment to rlam and to handle more complex
-+
+rtrace output into separate files or streams.
-+
-+
+Improved getinfo so that it can also hop over resolution string with -c
-+
+and header elide mode.
-+
-+
+Made pvalue -u option mean "uncompressed" with -r.  Also, allow skipping
-+
+bytes on standard input.
-+
-+
+Created rcode_depth tool to convert to and from a 16-bit/pixel portable
-+
+depth image encoding that uses a mix of linear and reciprocal distance
-+
+with explicit representations of 0 and infinity.  Code for loading these
-+
+depth maps is in src/util/depthcodec.{h,c}.
-+
-+
+Created rcode_norm tool to convert to and from 32-bit/pixel portable
-+
+surface normal representation, matching the one in src/common/dircode.c.
-+
+Code for loading normal maps is in src/util/normcodec.{h,c}.
-+
-+
+Created rcode_ident tool to create indexed identifier files.
-+
+Code for loading these files is in src/util/idmap.{h,c}.
-+
-+
+Added -o* option to rtpict to produce layered images that handle most
-+
+output types from rtrace (colors, surface normals, distances, IDs).
