It occurred to me today that it would be great if there were a tool
for merging several radiosity data files into one. One could then
gather radiosity information in several places in a scene, merge the
data and obtain radiosity data useable for anyplace in the scene. This
would be very useful for animations or for stills which show different
angles of the same scene. Also, I believe it would make tweaking much
easier because, instead of tuning up radiosity settings for just one
corner, one could place a spherical camera there, render with low rad
settings, then merge the data file.

So, what is the structure of the rad data file? Any specifics? Would
such a tool be hard to make?
