#C Help Needed!
2 messages in this thread
The Problem: I need load an IFF picture file (non-HAM) and dump a color
value for each pixel into a text file. In other words, if I load a 16-color
picture, I would start in the upper left corner and work across, writing a
0 through F for each pixel.
Any pointers toward source code that will get me started toward this? I
understand that 2.04 has some IFF routines built into the libraries based
on Schwab & Fergeson's IFF library, but the 2.0 Lib manuals aren't out yet.
🙁
My environment is SAS 5.10, A3000, lots o' RAM & storage. I have done a
moderate amount of C on the PC, but haven't done anything on the Amiga
since I sold my A1000 many years ago.
Thanks!

In the Amiga ROM KERNEL Reference Manual there is an entire section
devoted to IFF that includes several subroutines and such to read and
create IFF data. This was all I needed to make a program that converts
DPaint brushes into Images suitable for Intuition.
I'd certainly hope that the 1.3 manuals' information is upwards
compatible with 2.0, you can at least get the decompression formulas there.
