 <p><b>pgmmedian</b> applies a median filter to a PGM image, using either
 the histogram sort or select kth value method to determine the median.
 
+<p>A median filter is a convolution filter in which the value of a pixel in
+the output is the median of a certain set of pixels in the neighborhood of the
+corresponding input pixel.  The effect is to eliminate locally extreme values.
+Such pixels typically show up as speckles.
