[Radiance-general] protate in MinGW Radiance and projections using pinterp

[Greg Ward]

Hi Viswanathan,

Thanks to you, I realized that protate.c was missing the appropriate call to SET_FILE_BINARY() for Windows.  I just checked in a fixed version, although this won't help you until someone compiles it for Windows.

Just to go with the Desktop Radiance version of that program if you still have it.

Best,
-Greg

This command seems to work fine and dumps out expected results when I use it from Desktop Radiance installation. Has anyone faced such issues with protate and is there a solution for MinGW installation? Or am I missing something?
