Hi,
What's the easiest program to convert screen 8 files (from Videographics, I think, digitized pictures at least) to a PC usable format? It's for a Windows environment.

Hm. Windows executable. That doesn't do much good in a Linux environment  |

Well, manuel stated it was for a Windows enviroment, I'm sure he wasn't referring to the windows of his room orso..  |

Not a Windows app, but my old DOS CNVS program can do that in a Windows dos box. And it also runs on Linux in the dos emu environment  |

It's not for myself, but for a mega-noob. So CNVS is a bit unuserfriendly and I'm not sure how current PCX is.
Can someone check if Wolf's thing works fine (for noobs!)?  I'll pass him that URL then
Btw: thanks for your trouble, Wolf! |

It has 3 buttons, .. it's simple
[load sc8]
[save bmp]
[x] to get rid of an image, which brings back the fuzzylogic'esque dots (how retro can things be?  ) |

@wolf: blue value 216?
|

The extension is probably .PIC, btw. Not that it matters, but maybe it can be made even more noobfriendly then.
How do you calculate the BMP colour value?

Color r*36,g*36,b*72
so, *yes*, it's not exact .. but no-one can see the difference imho, and by using this, a gradient is really linear, rather than linear with a few jumps in the centre.. (not that anyone sees that  )
And iirc pic and sc8 are the same, but I could probably add it in v1.1  |
