The code to compute the histograms in TIFFs is in PTmender (not in CVS
yet, but soon).

Again, I really think we should strive for modularity. Why don't we
think in terms of Unix utilities: small programs, doing something
well, and replaceable?

I suggest we do colour-correction in a sequence of TIFF files, and
generate a bunch of TIFF files as output (or maybe PSDs). That way we
can replace the algorithm/program as desired to see which one performs
better.

If we put it inside nona or enblend then we risk creating a huge,
monolithic monster. In the same line, I would favor vignetting
correction as a stand alone program too. Sometimes people just want
that (same idea as in PTlens).
