This tool may be used to do standard optical ray tracing or daylight coefficient calculations for annual simulations, among other uses. + +Added tilde ('~') output option as part of the -o* specification of +rtrace. This permits ray trees to be parsed more easily in binary +output mode, as needed by rtcontrib. + +Implemented Russian roulette ray termination with -lr <= 0. +Made -lr -10 the default in rtcontrib. + +Made rtcontrib -f option search RAYPATH directories. + +Made it so -o option of rtcontrib can pipe -o output to a command. + +Added -if and -of options to total for binary i/o (following rcalc mold). + +Switched default options in rtrace to use Russian roulette.
