Writing files in "pgm" format

[Andrew Phillips-2]

My apologies for the previous positing with the wrong title.

A.P.

I am trying to save files in a ".pgm" file format (required by another
program).  While ImageJ can read these files, I have not been able to
find a way to save them in this format.  As far as I can see, the "pgm"
format is very similar to the "RAW" format, with the difference being
the inclusion of an ASCII header.  Is there a way that I can insert this
header using a macro, or alternatively, is there a "pgm" writer plugin -
(I have only been able to find a reader)?

Thanks,

Andy Phillips

Just whipped up a simple plugin.

Hth,

P.S.: The mailing list rejected the .class file, so you have to compile it
yourself.
