Yes, I had some problems reading the file. My image viewer had to be
extended to support P3 format.
But also, while P3 is a text format, all the data is on one long 14
million character line, so that I wasn't able to use line-oriented
reads, and makes manipulating it in some text editors difficult.
A P5 format (8-bit/binary) would have taken only 2MB instead of 14MB.
