Can someone explain to me the format of byte-encoded Sun rasterfiles (ras_type == RT_BYTE_ENCODED). I would like to know the structure of the bytes in the file representing the pixels in the image. I gather it's some sort of run-length encoding, but it's not entirely obvious and I can't seem to find the explanation in TFM. I do understand the header, colormap, and RT_STANDARD image formats.
