BUG:	The fixpix format input interpolates across the longer dimension
	rather than the shorter dimension.  If the region is a complete
	column/line then no correction is made.

STATUS:	Now fixed.  For square or nearly square regions the interpolation
	across the longer dimension is probably adequate.  Other workarounds
	are to use FIXPIX itself or convert the fixpix format file to regular
	cursor input to imedit (which then also allows use of any of the other
	options).
