Hello,
My company, Resonon, is releasing our free (as in beer) software 
package, Spectronon.  Spectronon is written in python and utilizes 
matplotlib, numpy, PIL, and scipy.  Spectronon's main purpose is 
analyzing hyperspectral data (images with many more bands of color than 
the traditional 3: red, green, blue).  It can also be useful for more 
traditional image processing.  Perhaps of most interest here, it is a 
quick way to get access to a command line with a bunch of useful 
libraries, plotting, and image viewing.  It's packaged as a basic exe 
installer.  There is also a fairly simple  plug-in architecture for 
extending some of Spectronon's behavior. 
    As the main developer, I am very thankful for all the good work that 
gets put in to all these underlying libraries, and I hope that in 
getting this software out for free, it can in turn support more academic 
and research applications of python and its libraries.  The release will 
also help me expose bugs, hopefully get more people interested in 
writing plug-ins for Spectronon, and help me learn other ways to improve 
the code base.  While the source code is not presently open, the API is 
open in order to support writing plug-ins.

Here are some screenshots:

I recommend users on this list go directly to the developer docs here:
http://www.spectronon.com/wiki/index.php?title=Setup_a_Simple_Development_Environment
 

as this tutorial will step you through the aspects of Spectronon of most 
probable interest.

Links to the download, support forums, and more docs are available at 
http://www.spectronon.com

Thanks very much.  I hope it's a fun ap for folks, and I greatly 
appreciate any questions, feedback, or comments as we begin to get this 
project off the ground.

Tim
