I am trying to create a program to read a .rgb file on a non-SGI workstation. I couldn't find the file format documented anywhere so I called up the SGI answer line and they couldn't tell me anything more than it wasn't documented. Does anybody have some documentation or a sample program that reads this format? thanks, Lee -- Lee Moore -- Xerox Webster Research Center -- +1 716 422 2496 UUCP: {allegra, cornell, decvax, rutgers}!rochester!rocksanne!lee Arpa Internet: Moore.Wbst128@Xerox.Com

I have been told by SGI people that there isn't any documentation for the SGI image library formats. They said to look in the 4Dgifts/iristools directory and look at the sources in the subdirectories and try to figure out the format from those sources. I have written some software that reads in ARGraph ".ras" files and outputs: Tektronix 4693D and PostScript B/W and grayscale formats. I put it on info-iris anoymous ftp. I think I called the file change. -- Brent L.
