WRT the converted looking different - are you viewing the result in a
CMS aware application? RSE will output files that are in the working
colour space (it can't convert them to sRGB if you want to work on
them in AdobeRGB for example). If the other application doesn't colour
manage them, they might indeed look wrong (either higher contrast and
more garish colours in case of viewing sRGB file in e.g. AdobeRGB
space, or slightly greeny and low contrast in case of viewing AdobeRGB
file, without colour management on).
Thanks for the pointer, Frantisek. I'm now getting a much closer match
between Rawshooter preview and colour management-enabled software. I've
not really bothered too much with colour management in the past as my
final printed images have been close enough to my intended look, but I
really should make the effort and do it properly.
Dario - I'm glad the latest version fixes your 'too dark' problem.
