[Radiance-general] iges conversion

[Mark Stock]

I forgot to mention that you should replace the "/usr/X11R6/lib/" 
part of the command-line option with whatever directory the librt 
is actually in. My bad.

I am interested in seeing this work, because I just recently 
downloaded BRL-CAD for similar purposes. I wish it had an 
obj-importer, though.
