Just pep talk here. I'm not a project developer. But my (good) life
depends on this software. Without it I'd be a real sourpuss.
Geeqie, UFRAW, entangle, ImageMagick, Gimp and ZereneStacker. All of which
are free to use except Zerene. Which is still a bargain.
I use other softwares too. But that's the critical list. Thank you. Thank
you. Thank you.
