We wrote a compositor plugin for zpic normalization 2004-07-01 - By Anthony Rossano

Hi All!
Just for kicks, my intern Casey and I did a UFO project. Actually, I
just told him to do it, and he actually wrote it.
It's a Zpic normalizer and converter, so you can use Zpics or convert
them to 8 bits or whatever you want to do with them, it works on
sequences, and is just a node in the Compositor.
One caveat, it normalizes the range of zpic values for each frame based
on the min and max value it finds, which could change over a period of
frames, if the camera or objects were moving.
So, here it is as an attachment, or if that doesn't make it through,
you can get it here:

it's free, do with it what you want. it's Linux only, 'cause that's
what we compile on. if you want Windows, write your own.
Here's his description and install instructions:
Zpic Remap Plugin
Author: Casey Wescott
Description:
The "Mesmer Zpic Remap" plugin takes as input a zpic or a sequence of
zpics, and normalizes
them. A slider allows scaling of the zpic according to user needs.
Installation:
to install plugin (Linux only), simply place the file "zpic.so" in the
following directory:
[install dir]/XSI_4.0/Application/fx/ufos
Launch XSI and the plugin "Mesmer Zpic Remap" will appear in XSI's
compositor plugins menu
in directory "Plugins[U]".
