Yes, today my brother wrote two utilities - one converts the 32-bit
float format from WM to 16-bit raw integer (that PhotoShop can read),
and the other converts from that to PNG. He's merging them into one at
the moment, cleaning up and adding a more user-friendly set of
command-line switches. Expect the source really soon, and if we can
get our hands on Borland C++ 5.5, a Windows binary (you can always
build your own Linux one if you want to).

The utilities work and I'm already using them :)
