Just thought you might like to know. I worked over frntdisp.pgm on Friday and found the cause of this problem (buffer overflow while filling in plot points along a front segment). The code was not checking to make sure that it wasn't trying to add values to array locations that were not allocated. The real cause was that the increment between plot points was set to a fixed value when it should be variable. Anyway, I updated FRNTDISP and tested it on a couple of different systems (AIX and Linux) while overlaying on images that were loaded with blow-ups/blow-downs ranging from +50 to -20. Looks like this problem is history. I put out the 4th addendum to 7.7 (7.704) just a few minutes ago.
