Yeah, I should have. I figured that there are a *LOT* of Amiga people
who know of (or at least where to look for) methods to do this.

Good to know.

Hmm, that sounds like comp.sys.amiga.tech.programming to me.

This was a technical question on converting the Amiga palette down to
one that can be used on a Sun. Iff2sun is a utility used by people who
have Amiga's and want to display pictures they have on Sun machines.

Lets' see, technical Amiga question about a utility used ONLY by people
who have Amiga's. Maybe I should post to alt.sex. ;-)
