[Radiance-general] rcontrib: warning - partial accumulaton in final record

[Germán Molina Larrain]

Hello Rob,

I thought RFLUXMTX managed all those options for us!  It looks like this...
I am not sure how many rays are getting into it through the STDIN, though

The STDOUT looks like this:

#?RADIANCE
oconv -f ./Materials/materials.mat ./scene.rad ./Windows/windows.rad
./Skies/white_sky.rad
rcontrib -fo+ -ab 3 -ad 512 -lw 1e-3 -fda -c 10000 -bn 1 -b
if(-Dx*0-Dy*0-Dz*1,0,-1) -m ground_glow -f reinhartb.cal -p
MF=1,rNx=0,rNy=0,rNz=-1,Ux=0,Uy=1,Uz=0,RHS=+1 -bn Nrbins -b rbin -m
sky_glow -y 145
SOFTWARE= NREL 5.0.a.11 (by googs 2016.05.24) based on RADIANCE 5.0
Official Release by G. Ward
CAPDATE= 2016:08:05 10:45:38
GMT= 2016:08:05 13:45:38
NCOMP=3
NROWS=145
NCOLS=146
FORMAT=ascii
