[gdal-dev] Get real and turf imaginary from complex float...

Thank you Frank,
I think I should have said, how do I get both the real and imaginary
numbers out as Float32, since ultimately I do want to calculate
magnitude (as you might have guessed). Then I could read the 'real' and
'imaginary' numbers into IDL as 2 separate tiffs do do the calculation.
I tried to import the CFloat32 directly into IDL/ENVI but it doesn't
like the '64-bit pixel'. Could there be a workaround by modifying tiff
tags to say the CFloat32 data are actually 2 separate 32-bit numbers?
Thanks,
Derek
