[alt.sources.d] Mac -> Bit Stream Raster

robiner@ganelon.usc.edu (Steve) (07/26/89)

Does anyone out there know of a utility ( on the mac or Unix ) which
can convert some Macintosh image format ( PICT, TIFF, GIF, etc ) to
a bit stream raster.

Currently, the best way we can do this is by using gif2ras on a sun
and then a BRL-CAD utility sun-pix to convert that into straight bit stream.

All this transfering of files and processing takes way too much time.
Anybody got a better way?

Thanks much in advance!

Yea, we could really use a utility like that around here as well.
a picttopbm would be great!  If anyone knows of anything else, please
let us know!
