[alt-photo] curve tools

Hi,

Some years ago I searched for a method to merge and flip photoshop curves. A thing photoshop itself can't. I found a method using a 256x1 pixel photoshop raw file and wrote about it here:

By coincidence, some months ago, I ran into a program called POdnc and guess what: POdnc can do this too! Actually it can do even more. Although windows only  I'm using it quiet often now (with the help of VMware fusion) for all kind of curve manipulations, comparing and finetuning.
I wrote an article about it here:

And it happens to be also a nice tool for the novice digital negative maker.
