- Hi all.
-
- Simple - my motif-GUI image processing program has a private 256 color
- colormap. I want to add an option to load/save so that users don't
- have to go through the hassle of creating a specific colormap every time.
-
- The only thing I've thought of is saving them the way SGI does in a
- 'rather boring' 256 lines - of - r - g - b values... I suppose this
- is nice because a user can edit the file and change things easily,
- but why not use my neat program? ;-)
-
- Does anyone have a 'better' way - (i.e. space).
-
- Mike
