Added support in normtiff for floating-point and 16-bit/sample TIFF input |

Made similar change for virtual sources to allow modifiers and aliases |

Rob Guglielmetti added -lw and -lh options to falsecolor to control the |

Made it so pcompos will read everything from a stream even if it doesn't |

It's a nasty format in so many ways -- I don't yet support conversion |

It's the most horrible image format I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. |

Increased -aa default value for all renderers (and also -ad and -as in |

If that isn't enough, then there's probably no hope, anyway. |

Added tone-mapping and monitor primary options to ra_bmp. This gives |

Added -p option to rcalc for "passive mode" that transmits |

Corrected the normalization of the Gaussian reflectance model. This will |

Enabled the -p option for primary conversion without tone-mapping |

reported radiance rather than XYZ values with Y in cd/m^2. |

Made it so ra_bmp only produces run-length encoded 8-bit output for |

Added script to convert to/from ICT's Poskanzer Float Map, which I don't |
