Hello, I have written a Dicom format plug-in for gimp. Dicom is a standard for medical apparatus and includes an image format which this plug-in partially supports for reading and writing. Here are some links about Dicom: http://medical.nema.org/ http://www.psychology.nottingham.ac.uk/staff/cr1/dicom.html I have attached the source for it to bug report #126521 . Sven wanted to have a discussion whether this plug-in should be included by default in gimp. So, the question is, do you want to improve your X-Ray images (and in the process change your name to Wilber Doe, which is the value for the "Patient name" tag of all dicom files written by the plug-in) ;-)? Regards, Dov
