Format is any format. which supports pure b/w pixels...pbm for |
38 |
example. |
39 |
Button screens are screens, on which button are drawn, since on |
40 |
screen sizeof of a handfull of pixels (160x80) in this case it is |
41 |
not useful to use windowmanager or XLibs or such to draw on to |
42 |
the screens. The screens are predefined and put onto the LCD |
43 |
when necassary. |
44 |
Indexed mode is a way to store the colors of a picture: |
45 |
True color: Each picture cell (short pixel) contains the bytes of |
46 |
bits defining the absoulte color value for red green and blue (rgb). |
47 |
Indexed mode: Each picture cell contains an index into an array of |
48 |
predefined rgb tripel. |
49 |
Most often, programs which do support only treu color does not |
50 |
understand to export to pure b/w image formats. |
51 |
Programs understanding indexed mode do more often pure b/w... |

Based on this, what program would you suggest to use, Jake? |
