[comp.sys.mac] wanted array to paint format converter

--------------  Begin Here ---------------------

I'm currently working on Image processor by Quantex Co. that produces
a digitized image (640x480bytes) with gray levels 0-255. For a Total
of 307200K picture.
The data is stored in a simple array of chars.

I want to take this information and port some pictures to a mac.
***  How Do I Do This ***  does a program exist that will take an
array of gray and convert to a mac+ picture?????

If so where do I find it?????

ie. char image[307200] ----> ?paint file? with complete gray simulation?
I'm even willing to truncate the image. It's the gray that matters.

Please excuse me if this has already been posted. But I haven't seen
it at my site.. This will be my last attempt to post it. -- I promise.

    It's not too difficult to convert gray-scale to 
black and white using a dithering array, but I don't
know of any program which could take an arbitrary
image and convert it.  

My question is, how are you going to get >300M on to a
Mac?
