[Equest-users] Single Pane Low E Glass

I think this is a better approach, since the angular characteristics of single- versus 
double-pane Low-E are probably different.
Speaking of using LBNL's Window program to create a custom Window file for use with eQUEST 
though, I've noticed that the
Window files used by eQUEST are different from the ones (W4LIB.TMP) used by DOE-2.1E.  
Have others noticed that, and how
does that interact with LBNL's Window program ?
