[comp.sys.amiga] DigiView RGB -> Sliced HAM conversion?

C136ERH%UTARLG.ARL.UTEXAS.EDU@ricevm1.rice.edu (Ray 'StarSailer' Howard) (10/25/89)

         I am trying to convert a DigiView 3.0 RGB format file into
         the "Sliced HAM" format.  I have tried using the Fuzzy Bitmap
         Programs version 0.94 (raw2fbm, fbquant, and fbcat) to
         produce a 256 color file in GIF format as I have a utilities
         to convert GIF file to the SHAM format.  Needless to say this
         is not working :(.

         raw2fbm produces a FBM file that all other FBM programs
         refuse to read.  Using fbcat -I with gray2clr produces a
         21-bit ILBM file that can be converted into a .fbm 21-bit
         file that is again impossible to convert as other fbm
         programs choke on it.

         Is there a program available that can convert a DigiView RGB
         format file into a "raw" RGB file of the type that raw2fbm
         will accept or the GIFtoTMP/TMPtoIFF utilities that are
         available?

         If I can get the RGB into a 256-color GIF file that would be
         easiest.  If nothing else, could anyone mail me the format
         that DigiView stores its RGB files in?  And the output format
         for the GIFtoTMP conversion program?  Any other ideas?


         Thanks for any help,  Ray.
