I've just updated the SAVEIMAGE and SHOWIMAGE tools. Support for 16-bit
display mode was added, and color decomposition handling is now
improved. These tools transparently handle any conversions necessary
between the current IDL display mode (8, 16, or 24-bit), and the
selected image format.

To save the contents of the current graphics window to GIF or JPEG
format:
IDL> saveimage, 'test.gif'
IDL> saveimage, 'test.jpg, /jpeg

To display an image in TIFF format:
IDL> showimage, 'test.tif'

Cheers,
Liam.

Ivan Zimine notified me of a problem which caused images to be displayed
inverted when the display order system variable !ORDER was set to one.
This problem has been fixed (thanks Ivan).
