| 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 -ovVWrx 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 |

| 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 |

| 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. |

| 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 |

| 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}. |

| 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. | 
| 2319 | > |  | 
| 2320 | > | Added new "turbo" palette to falsecolor (thanks to Taoning). |

| 2327 | > | Added support for loading RGBE images into matrices in dctimestep. | 
| 2328 | > |  | 
| 2329 | > | Added -y option to gensky and gendaylit to support more accurate Michalsky |

| 2334 | > |  | 
| 2335 | > | Added ability of vwrays, pinterp, and pmblur2 to read encoded depth files. |

| 2337 | > | Added -o RxCxR1xC1 facility to perform blocking in rcollate. | 
| 2338 | > |  | 
| 2339 | > | Made it so number of segments in genworm, genrev, and gensurf can be |

| 2341 | > |  | 
| 2342 | > | Added -D and -n option to gendaymtx to output sun description and skip | 
| 2343 | > | matrix output on request.  A -M option was also added to output solar | 
| 2344 | > | modifiers for rcontrib.  Support also added for leap days in WEA input. | 
| 2345 | > | Enhancements sponsored by Ladybug Tools. |

| 2349 | > | Fix to glarendx issues with dgi calculation. | 
| 2350 | > |  |

| 2361 | > |  | 
| 2362 | > | Eliminated unnecessary start-up procedures for rtrace when only ray-casting |
