[Radiance-general] Strange filetype naming when redering with radiance

[Thomas Bleicher]

As others already wrote, this is most likely a problem of the bash in
general not Radiance in particular.
I found this post related to "bash and question mark at end of file name":

http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.shell/2006-05/msg00342.html



BTW: According to your script you are calculating a grid of approx. 800000
points to create an image. This image is then filtered down to 1/10 of it's
size (8000 pixels). Couldn't save time and only render every 10th point in
every 10th row in the first place?

Regards,
Thomas
