     VIFF Image Map

     The plot information will be converted to a Khoros Image
     File Format, with the Y data saved in the image map. A one
     colunm by the "number of data points" rows map is generated.
     The map data type is always BYTE. The X data is not saved,
     only the Y data values. Note, that since the map data type
     is BYTE, the Y data values will be trucated/rounded to BYTE.
     This VIFF data file will not contain and image or location
     data.  Default values are used for image fields not applica-
     ble to the plot.

     The reason for generating a VIFF data file with the Y values
     stored in the map is to allow one to remap an image based on
     some function. For example, if one wanted to apply a gaus-
     sian function to an image, then one could generate gaussian
     data, scale and transform the data to range form 0 to 255
     and output the data in the map of a VIFF data file. Then the
     Khoros routine vhremap could be used to remap the image data
     to the gaussian function.
