[ptx] fulla as a Photoshop Plugin

[Brett Elliott]

Pablo (and other interested folks),

I've managed to compile fulla under OS X.  Look at the two pictures  
in this gallery of the phone booth:

Fulla has the ability to correct chromatic aberration (CA) right?   
Where does one come up with the parameters needed for CA correction?   
Is anyone working on gathering these parameters and storing them in  
some sort of database?  In a perfect world, I'd like to feed fulla an  
image from my camera, and have it fix the CA and barrel distortion  
fairly automatically (ie, no having to guess at parameters and such).
