- FastMC (tm) is the fastest truecolor-emulation for 8-bit displays.
- The idea came from Stefan Kost's slow "Multicolor"-system.
- Because applications using this algorithm are the slowest we know
- we decided to write a faster one.
-
- Advantages:
- -pixel-aspect and image-size are not changed
- -very high speed
- -more visible colors:
- -every color-channel (RGB) has a diffent number of shades ("eye-sensitive")
- -all 256 color-registers are used
- -rgb-values are in the usual range 0..255 (not 0.0..1.0)
-
- Examples:
- -jpeg-viewer
- -ppm-viewer
- -plasma-generator
