[Radiance-general] 2.5-phase method and gendaymtx

[Greg Ward]

That's right.  With genskyvec, you would give the -s option to gensky, instead.  And although there's no reason to specify the sky color with -d, since there is no sky, setting it after -d in genskyvec doesn't turn the sky back on like it does in gendaymtx.
