FROMDI(6D)							    FROMDI(6D)

NAME
     fromdi - convert an old .di dithered image into an RGB image

SYNOPSIS
     fromdi colors.map outimage.rgb

DESCRIPTION
     fromdi converts an old .di dithered (8-bits) image into an RGB image.
     ipaste works differently on 4D machines than it originally did on
     2000/3000 IRIS machines.  While it is true that on the 2000/3000 machines
     image files made by the program dither (making an 8-bit image) would work
     with ipaste , on the 4D's ipaste was written to operate on RGB (24-bit)
     images or SCREEN (16-bit starting at zero) images but not with DITHERED
     (8-bits starting at some offset) images.  Refer to the Note in the
     ipaste(1G) man page stating that if one REALLY wants to view their
     DITHERED images on a 4D, they will first need to use fromdi to convert
     them from DITHERED into RGB format, and then can use ipaste to display
     them.
