I've been trying to open Rice compressed files but without success. I wonder if you had any plans to add this functionality.

I work for Las Cumbres Observatory and all of our archive is Rice compressed. Some of our software engineers have updated a similar package to AstroImageJ (SalsaJ) so it can open FZ files, using the nom.tam.fits library. You can see the commit history on GitHub (https://github.com/SalsaJ/SalsaJ) if that's helpful.

We have around 1500 users and would love them to be able to use AstroImageJ with our data. Please let me know if I can help make this happen.

Thanks!
