[Radiance-general] rtcontrib works with trans materials?

[Thomas Bleicher]

With trans materials you have to increase the -ab value beyond the default
which is not necessary for glass. You can start with -ab 1 to get the same
starting point as with the glass scene but I expect you should increase
that depending on your scene complexity.
