Mononcrome2DNG utility

Hi, I'm blown away by the output from Monochrom2DNG!!! Kudos to the dev team
Just one question, does anybody know if it's possible to get linear dng output? It seems a 2.2 gamma curve is applied automatically.
That would be a very useful feature.
Thank you

Monocrom2DNG produced DNGs are linear, gamma is applied by your processing software

Wow, you're absolutly right! Seems like I've been fooled by my software. Thank you
 
I've converted the image from DNG to EXR using the online service from https://convertio.co and It solved my problem.
 
Sorry my limited technical knowledge but do you know any software that would convert DNG to EXR? Do I need to learn how to use libraw to perform such a task? Thanks

LibRaw built-in processing is derived from Dave Coffin's dcraw.c, it is not suited for EXR generation.

All right, I'll find another way. Thank you so much for your help. Cheers
