[Radiance-general] RADIANCE and Unix shells

[Jack de Valpine]

Hi Kirk,

Depending on what you are trying to do you may want to consider 
something more robust in terms of programming features such as Perl or 
Python. I am a huge fan of Perl which is extremely robust. On the other 
hand I know that Georg Mischler is quite a proponent of Python which is 
also quite robust.

Regards,

-Jack
