[McIDAS #JGN-249914]: IMGMAKE

Hi Mike,

re: Source of "jaggies" found and fixed.

> Cool!  And appropriate name, I like it.

The "jaggies" are a good indication that the 1D array of values
being send back from the server have been byte flipped incorrectly.
Because of your comments (and me verifying them in my development
environment), I went right to the section that I needed to address.
Luckily, it only took a good look at the code to see that I was
incorrectly switching on the input byte size, and not the output
byte size.  Once corrected, my tests looked correct, so I expected
yours to as well :-)

Good.

Excellent!

Well, I knew that it would be easy if/when I could find the problem.
Luckily, I zeroed in on the coding mistake quickly.

No worries.  I'm loving the GOES-16 imagery!

Will do!

re:

No, thanks to you for providing good feedback quickly!

Now, on to the next fire -- the update of the Unidata McIDAS-X documentation...

Cheers,
