[Radiance-general] Blinds

There are currently two blind models in Daysim:

Simple (quick and dirty): Just assumes that when the blinds are down
they are down for all openings in a building and block all direct
sunlight and 75% of diffuse daylight.

Advanced (takes time to calculate): The user has to provide one or more
additional Radiance files with an explicit blind model (individual
slats) in it. Two or more sets of daylight coefficients are then being
explicitly calculated with the base scene geometry plus the various
blind settings.

Hmmm getting curious now - how is the dynamic blinds model  
implemented? Is it adding geometry or is it modifying the  
transmissivity?
