A few months ago, Jef Poskanzer posted a family of programs to convert
between several different bitmap formats, Macpaint and Sun rasterfile
were among them.  I don't have the whole package.  So if anyone has it
or remembers where it was posted/what archive site to get it from,
please speak up.

In the meantime I'll forward a copy of this message to him, and see what
comes back.
