I too moved from a mac to a NeXT and missed the Spyglass
apps.

I have ported the NCSA HDF libraries (no big deal) to the
NeXT and written an image viewing program.  It is not the
full suite of spyglass stuff, but it will show raw byte,
raw float, HDF ris8 and HDF sds 2d files.  It will also scale
the image, show the pixel coordinates and value that you
are pointing at, and give a histogram from which you can
re-scale the image.  It will open tiff files, but the
histogram stuff needs to be debugged here.  It will save
tiffs as ris8 and vice-versa.

If there is some interest, I can probably release it to the
public domain,

Let me know,

Hmm.  Different meaning for contour.
When I said contour plots, I meant contour as in topographic map,  
weather isobar, etc.  

However, it would be really neat if the full spyglass stuff were  
available for the Next.
