Usage: skel_MK3 in.pgm nsteps [inhibit] out.pgm
Description: Parallel 3D binary thinning or ultimate skeleton. The parameter nsteps gives, if positive, the number of parallel thinning steps to be processed. If the value given for nsteps equals -1, the thinning is continued until stability.
If the parameter inhibit is given and is a binary image name, then the points of this image will be left unchanged.
