Hi,

I am not sure, but I thought ImageJ did not support reading LEI files
without the Bio-Formats plugin. So I'm guessing Mike & Joel have Bio-Formats
installed, and ImageJ is calling it when they drag and drop?

If so, then I'm guessing there is a bug in Bio-Formats with LEI, in which
case I would be glad to fix the problem, if someone can send me a stack
trace and/or sample data that demonstrates the problem.
