IDL has routines to handle several graphics formats, including TIFF and
PICT (TIFF_READ and READ_PICT). Regarding the Sun SPARC, there is a
READ_SRF (Sun Raster File) program available which would probably be
best to interact with other Sun programs like snapshot. Each of these
programs has a corresponding WRITE_* program, also. You can find more
info on these in the user library section of the online help.
