762  
763 + In the special case when the raw file name and picture file name are
764 + the same, the raw file is saved and no filtering takes place.
765 +
766 + .Views.Zfile
767 +
768 + The "Zfile" entry window gives the root name of the file in which to
769 + store the raw (binary floating point) distances to pixels in the
770 + original generated image.
771 + If this entry is empty, then no z-file will be saved.
772 +
773 + The final z-file name will be the given root plus an underscore plus
774 + the view name plus a ".zbf" suffix.
775 +
776 + To convert this image to human-readable form, the program "od" will
777 + work on some systems, or the Radiance "pvalue" program may be used
778 + to first convert it to a greyscale Radiance picture using the
779 + options "-r -h -b -df `getinfo -d < pictname`" where "pictname" is
780 + replaced by the raw picture file name.
781 + (Getinfo simply gets the original image dimensions, which are not
782 + stored in the z-file.)

1271   The "Delete" button on the Results screen is used to remove the
1272   selected picture files from the filesystem.
1273 + Associated raw picture and z-buffer files
1274 + will also be deleted if they exist.
