[Radiance-general] problems with the rayinit.cal

[Hugo Testolini]

thanks for the answer, I had raypath all in uppercase as you mentioned it
should be. but path was in lowercase. I changed it to uppercase and I try to
run again the calculation, still appearing the same fatal error. I dont know
what to do....thanks a lot!
