NAME

       PTAInterpolate - Interpolate intermediate images between stereo photos.

SYNOPSIS

       PTAInterpolate script_file [param2]

DESCRIPTION

       PTAInterpolate Interpolate intermediate images between stereo photos.

       Description: This program is an enhanced version of Helmut Dersch's original PTInterpolate program.  PTInterpolate's source code was never
       released, so this program was written from scratch.  It is believed that this program should function as a substitute for the original
       PTInterpolate program in most circumstances.  Enhancements to the original PTInterpolate program include:

       1. When used with the accompanying source code in the original distribution, the output is in TIFF format, not PSD (with an incorrect
       extension)

       2. The output files produced by this program include a numeric value indicating the amount of the interplation position between left and
       right images

       3. If no valid "i" lines are included in script, then this program triangulates the c lines, and ovrewrites the script file

       Usage:

	 PTAInterpolate script.txt [param2]

       Where "param2" is either an image index (0=left, 1=right) to be used when triangulating, or a filename prefix to be used when interpolat-
       ing.

NAME

       PTmasker - Compute stitching masks

SYNOPSIS

       PTmasker [options] tiff_file(s)

DESCRIPTION

       PTmasker computes stitching masks. It implements the ability to increase depth-of-field by stacking images.

OPTIONS

       -p prefix
	   Prefix for output files (defaults to masked%4d).

       -e feather
	   Size of the feather (defaults to zero).

       -f  Force processing (do not stop on warnings).

       -x  Delete source files (use with care).

       -q  Quiet run.

       -h  Output help summary.

       -z  Enable Extended depth of field.

       -m  Focus estimation mask type.

	   0 hard-edged masks, mutually exclusive
	   1 hard-edged masks, stack of nested masks
	   2 blended masks, stack of nested masks

	   2 is default and strongly recommended: This option includes a smoothing computation that seems to help a lot.

       -w integer
	   Focus estimation window size. Only available if -z.

	   Recommended value is 0.51001114526f image width, e.g. 4 pixels for an 800-pixel image.

	   Computation cost for focus estimation increases proportional to N^2.  Defaults to w4.

       -s integer
	   Smoothing window size. Only available if -z.

	   Recommended value is 0.50f image width, e.g. 4 pixels for an 800-pixel image.

	   Computation cost for focus estimation increases proportional to N^2.  Defaults to w4.
