[Radiance-general] Thanks for support ...

[Christian Fusenig]

Hi there,

thanks to everyone for helping me with my radiance problems in my 
thesis, especially Greg for his help on explaining the integration of a 
better RGB rendering, mentioned in the 'Picture Perfect' essay. I never 
expected this list to be that helpful and supportive as it is,  this is 
really a living 'handbook'!  I gave the thesis  in last wednesday and 
hope it will turn out all right.
Seven months ago i didn't know anything about radiance only that Relux 
Vision uses a version of it. I am a windows user and found the cygwin 
implementation of radiance. I used this one because it was the only one 
i could find on the net. I was happy to be able to use all the Unix 
commands out of the 'Rendering with Radiance Book'. Cygwin is not really 
a practical system but it was enough for my needs and i didn't wanted to 
swap systems in the middle of my thesis. Now i want to move on and use a 
more practical and stable version of radiance. After following your 
discussion about radiance on different systems can you tell me, what is 
the better alternative: using the windows based version 'mingw' ( of 
which i heard for the first time) or ( as i planned ) use the Knoppix 
Version of Linux from the Learnix platform. Up to now i don't plan to 
install a Unix system.
Thanks for advice,

Christian
