[Radiance-general] rayinit.cal problem

[Lars O. Grobe]

Hi,

I have never used radiance on windows and do not know about windows 
neither. Still there is something strange in what you describe:

You found rayinit.cal in a subdirectory called 
cygwin-radiance_dist-3R9\lib, so I guess your binaries are in 
cygwin-radiance_dist-3R9\bin, right? Still your PATH points to 
/opt/radiance/bin, and you are able to call oconv. So something is 
wrong. Is it possible that the settings in this .bash_profile are 
overwritten somewhere?

CU Lars.
