I'm not familiar with this (but learning). See if this blog entry
helps:

"...One of the hidden secrets of Gimp is that it supports the LAB color
space so you can get access to the L, a and b channels in an image.
This adjustment therefore produces similar results to those you can
achieve with my earlier post using Photoshop it?s just that the process
in Gimp is a little different..."

A nice collection of useful tricks. Thanks. I've been working
self-taught, and did not know of those tricks. Bookmarked for the next
thing that she decides to share.

Right now, I am dealing with some 78 rolls of B&W negatives,
recently scanned. I've gotten quite a few ussable images out of
terribly exposed negatives. Not much I can do about when the shutter on
the Contaflex Super was sticking partially open -- lots of weird streaks
on those images. :-) About the time I move on to the Miranda F, and got
true lens interchangeability. (The Contaflex Super had only the front
element interchangeable, with a between the lens shutter.

Thanks,
DoN.
