[ptx] Super-resolution images from many registered digicam images

[Jim Watters]

Have you looked at ALE   http://auricle.dyndns.org/ALE/ 
I saw and downloaded it a few days ago but have not had a chance to play 
with it.

    ALE is a free software program that renders high-fidelity images of
    real scenes by aligning and combining many similar images from a
    camera or scanner.
