[Radiance-general] misterious error

[Jack de Valpine]

Hi Giovanni,

Not sure on this, as I do not remember if there are issues with spaces 
around the "=" sign. Your rif file has

    VARIABILITY = MEDIUM

all the other parameter names have the = sign right after the name, so 
what about

    VARIABILITY= MEDIUM
