Isoline
A box of buttons to increase or decrease the current mapping level is presented in this script to explore isobar lines representing "tone elevations" of the current image. The view changes with each new choice. A central "X" is used as an exit button.

These mappings sometimes benefit from some multiply merge darkening which is precisely what the little tool script, burn_in does. Repeated applications will darken lines and saturate soft colors.

You are asked for a string of comma separated level numbers (0-255) to map into multiple isobar mappings and you may also opt to save the separate isobar maps and their zone maps for creative combinations. A message box appears to inform you of where it is saving those files if you choose to do so.

Distill is another little tool script that uses repeated applications to achieve it's effect. In this case the effect is a "distillation" of text forms into rounder shapes. An easy edit to the script can cause the shape to "fatten" or to get thinner.
