[comp.sys.mac.programmer] wanted: program to dump PICT file intelligently

day@grand.UUCP (Dave Yost) (03/12/89)

I am looking for a program that converts a PICT file
into a source code fragment in C or Pascal consisting
of a sequence of Quickdraw calls that would reproduce
the same PICT file.

Anyone heard of such a thing as an application
or a template for ResEdit?

Thanks.

Pict Detective, from Palomar Software, does just that.  Your choice of C or
Pascal or Rez.  Handles PICT2 (color).
