[R] re ading jpeg images?

[Hans W. Borchers]

I found the 'biOps' package for "Image and data analysis" quite helpful.
(I did some astronomical investigations with it --- counting galaxies in
 a Hubble picture---and I do recommend this package.)

Under Windows you have to unpack the 'libjpeg' and 'libtiff' libraries
beforehand somewhere in your path.
See <finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp08/2009-April/194630.html> for a link
to download all necessary libraries as a zip-file.

If this link to RapidShare does not work anymore, I think I still have
that file somewhere and could send it to you by e-mail.

Regards
Hans Werner
