[comp.sys.amiga] Converting GIF 256 colors pictures into SHAM

Sylvain@speedy.CAM.ORG (Sylvain Tremblay) (07/22/90)

How can I convert GIF 256 colors pictures into SHAM pictures?

I have ShamSharp, but it always converts my GIF into normal HAM pictures.
Is there a flag I should give to ShamSharp to convert into SHAM?

Help needed please.

Thanks in advance.

If you use the -s flag in Shamsharp, it makes passable pictures.  Not good,
but viewable.  If you use GIFmachine, by Chris Wichura
(caw@miroc.chi.il.us), you'll get great pictures, but they take a bit
longer. I average around 18 minutes for a 1.5 meg file.
