Bsdfview in non-interactive mode

Hi,

Is it advisable to replicate the workflow for bsdfview in a non-interactive mode? I am working with a remote terminal window and would like to generate the default views for a series of xml files by iterating through them one at a time. I managed to do so by copying the rif structure from the perl file for bsdfview and turning off the -o option.

Is there a reason why the non-interactive mode isn't a part of the functionality?

Thanks,

Sarith

Hi Sarith,

That's a good idea. I just didn't think of it. I'll figure out an appropriate option and check it in.

I realized that an option already exists for this, just run using "-v 0". I added a note to the end of the bsdfview man page about it.

Hi Greg,

Thanks. I recompiled my installation with the latest source-code from github and it works great.
