I've been looking for that for a long time but to no avail. I've resorted to importing images via the clipboard on the Mac, but that doesn't always work (sometimes it just crashes the entire application rather than a graceful no-can-do). The only way I know of for grabbing images on a UNIX machine is right off the screen via the fromUser method. If anyone has a TIFF reader/writer for ST-80 please let us all know! -- | Dan Benson benson@ee.washington.edu | | Dept. of Elec.

The author was Gerald Haden, who has since graduated with a Ph.D, and is currently with IBM in Raleigh NC. The thesis should be available on loan from the Vanderbilt University science library. I dont have the current email address of Gerry, but you might try contacting him at his old address that might get forwarded, ghaden@vuse.vanderbilt.edu -- Brian -- Brian Antao, |INET: brian@vuse.vanderbilt.edu Dept. of Electrical Engg., |Office: Room 283, New Engineering Bldg.
