Converts XPM file into SCREEN5/V9990 (p1 mode) without any additional library other than libc. This is done by creating an executable that #includes the XPM file as source code, since XPM files are C-compatible files. This project is meant to be used inside another, by a parent Makefile calling this Makefile inside a subdirectory. If the image is called image1.xpm, run the code like this:
make images/image1.raw
build/image1 --raw build/image1.raw
build/image1 --header > build/image1.h
to create a raw VRAM file called image2.raw. You may also create .c and .h files with the following commands:
make images/image2.c
build/image2 > build/image2.c
build/image2 --header > build/image2.h
The binary generated by converter.c recognise these command line parameters:
--screen5 Outputs a SCREEN5 compatible image (256 width max. with 15 colors).
--v9990 Outputs a P1 mode compatible image (V9990 graphics card).
--keep-unused Unused palette colors are still converted to output file.
--contains-palette Get palette colors and order from first disposable line of the image.
--palette Outputs palette too.
--image Outputs image too.
--header Outputs C-style header file.
--raw Outputs raw file (VRAM memory dump).
--basic Outputs BASIC file and respective BIN file.
--trans-color #<RRGGBB> Supply hex string #RRGGBB as a transparent color replacement.
