Message-ID: <1990Dec11.193120.3127@nntp-server.caltech.edu> Date: 11 Dec 90 19:31:20 GMT Organization: California Institute of Technology, Pasadena Lines: 7 how is a .spc file encoded? any hints would be helpful, for example, how big is the bitmap, is there a color palette? how many bits per pixel, etc. i would like to know exactly how it is encoded, so i can write a program to decode them, but any hint would be good, and i might be able to look at the file and figure the rest out. also, how are .arc files encoded? gwoho liu.
