[Gimp-developer] viewing Dectris X-ray detector data

[Halina STANLEY <halina stanley esrf fr>]

Hi there

I was wondering how easy (?!) it might be to change the GIMP data 
input/output routines so that instead of reading/writing jpg images 
"GIMPX" could read/write Dectris X-ray detector format data...

In fact, we would really only be interested in a very small subset of 
all the image processing that GIMP can do.  For example, certain zones 
of the 2d detector need to be masked before further data analysis can 
proceed.  The ability to select contiguous regions based on count-rate 
would be very helpful.

thanks for any replies !
