	How could it be an output as it has to be a conversion from an
existing normal output to a compressed output and thus cannot be
written directly. 

	Jpeg input will give some interesting effects to height fields.
It can be tried right now by saving one to jpg with lowest and
highest resolution, converting back to something currently
readable and comparing. Smooth it. 

	There are so many mountains and so few rolling hills.
