[Radiance-general] are there any document for perl file included in Radiance/bin folder?

[Nathaniel Jones]

Hi Axel, Greg, Katsuya,

I get the same error on Windows when using dctimestep. Here's a sample
output:

D:\nljones\models\Reference\GH>rcontrib -version
NREL 5.0.a.12 (by googs 2016.10.04) based on RADIANCE 5.0 Official Release
by G. Ward

D:\nljones\models\Reference\GH>perl W:\Radiance\src\util\genBSDF.pl
windowBSDF.rad  1>ReferenceGH_BTLAB-16_ab8_ad50000_lr10_lw.00002.xml

C:\Users\nljones\AppData\Local\Temp\genBSDF.v4UOj7\phase.txt - The process
cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Note that for the perl scripts, I'm referencing them from my clone of the
NREL git repo, so they should be up to date.

I'm not sure if the messages indicate that anything bad has happened, as
dctimestep is still generating output.
