pip install mergechannels or build from github.com/zacswider/me...
I don’t recommend it, I’m falling back to a macro because whatever FIJI is doing can handle the *several* different formats masquerading under the same file extension

Python is everywhere — the web, machine learning, analytics, devops, embedded systems, mobile, etc.
Any ideas @psobolewskiphd.bsky.social ? this was partially motivated by one of your napari plugins

If you’re like me and want to use/blend FIJI lookup tables from Python you can now install mergechannels with pip or build from source: github.com/zacswider/me...
This is a very *minimal* working implementation but there’s more to come :)
Looks interesting, have you tried it?
