I think you are talking about my LinkedList object
and the LinkedList editor, that is built, but not
available to the public. :-)

Actually, the system we are building does all the
things you mention and more. To "process" an image,
we store "process" objects in its container. You
can add them, remove them, change their order, etc.

We are torn, at the moment, between wanting to become
famous by writing a book that explains all this, or
to become rich by writing programs with the system.
I'll let you know the next time you are in Fort
Collins. :-)

Cheers,

David
