β¨ NAME β¨
wbmp2xpm β bestie, it converts WBMP files to 1-bit XPM files π
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so these are tools for dealing with WBMP files β aka WAP bitmaps. Yeah. Those. π«Ά
These files are really simple, like no cap, they're giving minimal effort and honestly? iconic. Here's the whole vibe:
- The first two bytes contain version information (I think π€) which at the minute is set to
0. - The 3rd byte contains the width and the 4th byte the height (I guess this makes WBMP images max
255x255pixels then π). - From the 5th byte onwards they are simply byte-padded binary encoded 1-bit images β
1for white,0for black. That's it. That's the whole format. Slay.
wbmp2xpm generates 1-bit XPM files from WBMP files. An example WBMP file is included (logo.wbmp) so you can literally just try it out bestie π¦
Coming soon : something useful (i.e. a WBMP creator) π fr fr we're working on it
π USAGE π
Usage: ./wbmp2xpm <file.wbmp>
Debian GNU/Linux β July 2005 π mwah, that's the tea, go convert some bitmaps and eat something nice today, ily πβ¨π
