palette - a colormap editor tool (source announcement)

[mesard at bbn.com]

Enclosed is a shar file containing a program called Palette.  This tool
should save a great deal of time and frustration for anyone who has to
build color schemes for a SunView program or raster image.  Here are the
first two paragraphs from the man page.

     Palette is a colormap  editing  tool.   It  can  modify  the
     colormaps  being used by other windows, or create new color-
     maps.  Colormaps may be saved as C code for inclusion  in  a
     program, or in raster file format.

     As a programming tool, Palette can  be  used  to  modify  an
     application's  colormap arrays, thus eliminating the need to
     make incremental changes to the  code,  with  time-consuming
     recompilations  between  each  modification.   As a graphics
     tool, palette can be used in conjunction with bitmap editors
     such  as touchup(l) which have little or no colormap modifi-
     cation abilities.
