[Radiance-general] RADIANCE and Unix shells

[Kirk Thibault]

I have ventured into the realm of Python, so I hear you on that  
aspect - Blender's API is also Python, so that may be a way to go  
versus pure shell programming.  Any examples of programming RADIANCE  
through Python would be great.

I'll search around.

Thanks!
