I'm VERY interested in it.... Check out the book "Graphic File Formats" I don't remember the authors or ISBN, but I'll go look it up if you're interested. It describes GIF, JPEG, TARGA, .pcx, TIFF, and several other popular file formats. I almost bought it, but I was in a mental slump and too lazy to do the thinking to understand the book. =^) Also, somewhere out there I remember seeing a GIF file which explains how such files are coded/decoded. Don't remember where though, it's been years... -- Galen Komatsu ! Apple //e ! XTC gkomatsu@uhunix.uhcc.hawaii.edu ! Sega Mega Drive ! Sakai Noriko ar592@cleveland.freenet.edu ! Classic Atari !
