- Someone a little while back was wondering how to view the voyager images at
- pioneer.unm.edu. Source is there to uncompress the IMQ files (cdcomp.c) but
- the source does not compile on NeXT systems. I was interested so I modified
- the source to work on NeXT systems (just changed some args to fopen.) I will
- place the source and a stripped executable at sonata as cdcomp.tar.Z.
-
- I use the 'Unlabelled binary array' option (#4) in cdcomp and then put that
- through 'rawtopgm' from the pbmplus utils. The images are 800x800 so:
- %rawtopgm 800 800 image.file > image.pgm
- gives you a pgm file that ImageViewer can read.
