[comp.graphics] Sun raster file converter

rainbow@sbcs.sunysb.edu (Hong Min) (10/14/88)

I posted a SUN raster file color to mono converter named 8to1 in 
comp.sources.misc. The shar file includes two independent files.

8to1.c -- 
   This program converts a 8-bit depth sun raster file (both color, 
   i.e. rgb are different, and grey, i.e. rgb are the same, and both 
   standard format and byte-encoded format) to a 1-bit depth mono sun
   raster file. If your color image has no colormap, this program would
   provide a default grey scale color map. It implements several halftone
   algorithms from Digital Halftones by Dot Diffusion in acm Transactions 
   on Graphics, such as error diffusion, ordered dither and dot diffusion
   with and without edge enhancement.

scload.c --
   a screenload type of program, but more entertaining, and actually 
   better than screenload. The only restriction is that the default 
   frame better is /dev/fb. It's written by Raymond Kreisel, the author
   of touchup.

So welcome to use the program, i would like to hear from you whether you
think it's useful or not. Enjoy!
