As I've written many times, you don't process RAW files. Use the camera manufacturer's converter to convert to 16-bit tiff, then process the tiff in whatever floats your boat, even free FastStone image viewer, then produce whatever jpegs are required, by resizing and saving as a jpg file.

... Not all tiff supporting editors support 16 bit (e.g. GIMP, it's in the works, but last I heard it's not ready yet).  Also you can't only work at the tiff level if you want to do something like use a different demosaicing algorithm.
