I have a simple C program that reads a FTS file, computes IRAF-like zscale
parameters and pipes the "raw" data to the only "external" used, namely
"raw2gif" from giflib-3.0 suite of apps.

If you want it, e-mail me. If you don't want to search/build giflib, I
can also send you the executable of "raw2gif", working under RH7.2 i386.

regards, Michal.
