The read() function can automatically recognize and load the following file formats: SpecPR_FS2 VICAR PDS/ISIS Qube and Image PBMPlus: PBM, PGM and PPM formats USGS GRD Imath GOES weather satellite AVIRIS GIF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP HDF5 If the specified path is not absolute (ie: it doesn't start with a '/'), and the specified file cannot be found in the current directory, the DATAPATH variable is used as a list of directories to additionally search. The specified path is appended to each directory listed in the DATAPATH variable. If the variable VERBOSE is set to a value greater than zero, details of the file loading process are printed to stderr. Higher values (up to 3)produce more output. The record value is required for SpecPR files. If it is given with another file type, it is used as the high and low value for a Z axis subset, causing a single image to be extracted from cubes. The values low, high and skip can be specified for each axis (ie: xlow, zhigh, etc) to specify a precise subset to be read. All the subsetting arguments are optional. Reading a PPM image produces a 3-plane, BIP cube of byte values. Each plane represents the red, green and blue values respectivly. The functions load() and import() are aliases for the read() function.
