RHINFO(1) General Commands Manual RHINFO(1)NAME
rhinfo - print information about a RADIANCE holodeck file
SYNOPSIS
rhinfo input.hdk
DESCRIPTION
Rhinfo reads the RADIANCE holodeck file input.hdk and writes out the header and section information, including the grid sizes, number of
beams and a histogram of samples/beam for each section.
EXAMPLE
To print the header and section information from scene1.hdk:
rhinfo scene1.hdk

RHOPTIMIZE(1) General Commands Manual RHOPTIMIZE(1)NAME
rhoptimize - optimize beam locations in holodeck file
SYNOPSIS
rhoptimize [ -u ] src_holo [ dest_holo ]
DESCRIPTION
Rhoptimize optimizes beam positions and eliminates fragment waste in the holodeck file src_holo, writing the result to dest_holo, or back
into src_holo if only one argument is given. This may improve rendering speed on large holodecks, which tend to have widely dispersed beam
positions that cause delays due to long file seeks. It may also reduce the size of the file, since large holodecks become fragmented as
they fill up with new ray samples. (Use the rhinfo(1) program to determine holodeck file fragmentation.) The -u option adds a check to
make sure that each ray sample is unique, i.e., the same sample is never given twice. This check is usually unnecessary, but may eliminate
redundant samples from some holodeck files.
EXAMPLE
To optimize the beam order in old.hdk and write the results to new.hdk:
rhoptimize old.hdk new.hdk
To optimize beam order in scene.hdk:
rhoptimize scene.hdk
NOTES
If rhoptimize is given only one file argument, it creates a temporary file in the same directory, and moves it onto the original file once
it has successfully completed its operation. If the operation fails for some reason, the temporary file is removed and the original
holodeck is left unchanged.
This program generally takes several minutes to run and offers no progress reports.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.

The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)
