I'm trying to read sub-areas of a 2-d detector array, and would like to
be able to transfer these areas over Transputer links.  You can use
counted arrays  (INT::[]REAL32) for 1-d stuff, but is it possible to
achieve the same for 2-d?

I'd like to be able to do
  CHAN OF suitable.protocol in :
  [256][256]REAL32 data :
  INT nrows, ncolumns :
  SEQ
    in ? nrows; ncolumns; [[data FROM 0 FOR nrows] FROM 0 FOR ncolumns]

but can't for the life of me figure out how to declare the protocol, or
even whether it's possible.  


Cheers,
