kimgio includes read support for OpenEXR (so all KDE apps using standard
mechanisms for loading images can read it, only in 8bit of course, if
KDE is built with OpenEXR). Note however konstruct (the tool to build
KDE from source) does not install OpenEXR as a dependency so you have to
explicitly install it before building to have it supported.

I thought that the "dynamic" part referred to the fact that the
format uses floating point numbers (which can scale dynamically to
bigger ranges by changing the exponent part of the number). PNG only
uses integers which are mapped linearly, so there's no dynamicity
there.

I think precisely that what Alain meant was that while 48bpp offers a
greater dynamic range than 24bpp (namely 511:1 instead of 255:1), it is
far from being truely "high dynamic range" (the dynamic is 10e38:10e-38
for .hdr, 65000:0.0000012 for .exr)...

That's more likely 65535:1...

Wooops indeed, I should avoid posts on friday the 13th ;-)
Well anyway you got the idea : 255:1 < 65535:1 < 65000:0.0000012 <
10e38:10e-38, in terms of dynamic range. While precision and
quantization would be another issue...
Thanks for correcting anyway :-)

Depends on your definition of "well", but I see your point.
I guess it comes down to my own interest then; whether I can find the
motivation to make the code presentable enough for release.

All right, I've tinkered enough with this thing now. I really don't feel
inspired enough to continue work on the program right now, so I'll just
release it as it is, in case anyone finds it useful.
For those that haven't been following this discussion, 'hdr2exr' is a
program that converts image files to/from HDR, OpenEXR & PNG.
Source (excluding support libraries) at:
http://hem.bredband.net/b230591/hdr2exr/hdr2exr_source.zip
Precompiled Win32 binary at:
http://hem.bredband.net/b230591/hdr2exr/hdr2exr_win32.zip
Example image in all supported formats at:
