Thanks for all the replies !  When I pick All Files and then activate the 
Select File Type, the drop down list does not contain a "RAW".. the list is 
alphabetical and PostScript document is followed by Scalable Graphic IRIS image 
?
The GIMP we have installed is 2.2.33  is this an old rev ?
And to answer a previous question, the results of the file command for these 
files I am trying to open is: data

The hidden list shows no extension(s) for raw and ".data" files are
not shown when the other selector is set to "All images", so I
doubt. You will probably have to open the dialog, change the filter to
show all files as well as pick RAW from the other list, then select
the file. Yes, it sounds repetitive and the forced format option seems
to be always closed and forgotten (tried it with PNGs). I also tried
drag and drop with random file named "foo.data", it caused an error.

If the data has an extension of .data on the file name is it 
automatically detected?

Ooops, right... yet another reminder of why I hate interfaces that
hide and forget you opened the "|>". I just noticed the selector now,
different than the filtering one.

It's the same in GIMP. Since raw data can't really be autodetected you
need to select "raw image data" as the file type in the File open
dialog.

What is the output of the file command?

# file 

Does "identify" from imageMagick give any output?

GIMP PDB shows file-raw-load & file-raw-save. How to get them to do
something... that is a different question, the "new" file dialog seems
to be missing any reference to raw files. Try showing all file types,
then loading one with a non matching file extension (in old versions
you would be able to pick any file and then force the loader to use,
IIRC). Or maybe use script-fu console to popup the loader options.

Can you upload an example image somewhere, or is there a link?

[Gimp-user] opening binary flat files

2011-02-01 Thread mintakax
I often use photoshop to open binary flat files, either 8 or 16 bit depth. In 
photoshop if I select open using photoshop raw format, a dialog box pops up 
asking what the image dimensions are (ie, 512x512), the number of channels (ie 
1), the bit depth and the byte order.
Is there any way to do this in GIMP, either native or with plugins... I dont 
think that the UFRaw will work as these files do not come from a camera-- they 
are images of satellite imagery that are just binary flat files.

Thanks,
Dan
