We've been switching over from an internal format to SRI's (?) IU-workbench
format.  This is the default format for Image-Calc and seems to be adequate
for the time being.  When we store scene structures with line segments
thrown in, we use an adaptation of the format used by Image-Calc for color
images (i.e., a master file which contains paths for each component image,
and then all the definitions for the lines & their properties).
