I dunno.  Look for a program called Enhance from MicroFrontiers.  It's
harder to find since it only started shipping recently.  On the other
hand, it's _much_ faster and has a generally more flexible control set.
Also, it works with (read: requires) 32-bit Quickdraw; Digital Darkroom
produces pictures with compressed grayscale under 32-bit Quickdraw.
Last but not least, it supports compressed TIFF files -- a big space
saver.

There's a review of it in, I think, the March 1990 MacWorld.
