Folks,

OK, I've looked this up for the last time! I'm writing it
down. I just want to be sure I'm right about this.

Pixel-interleaved image: BIP: 3-m-n.
Row-interleaved image: BIL: m-3-n.
Band-interleaved image: BSQ: m-n-3.

And,

m = column = sample
n = row = line
3 = dim = band

Does that look right to you? :-(

Cheers,

David

This happened to me once... several days ago there was a time when I
started getting no responses on the command line, though if I tried to
bring up plots they showed. But PRINT and HELP statements did
nothing. I don't remember how I got into that situation, but a
full_reset helped fix it.
