[ScummC-general] [PATCH] palcat improvements

[Stuart J Urquhart]

I decided to modify the palcat tool so that i could pre-append palettes onto the processed image. Essentially, all this means is that i can specify palette'd images before as well as after the image i am looking to process. In addition, the colors in the processed image will be shifted according to how many palette entries have been prefixed onto it.

Examples of use:

palcat -o merged.bmp -i image2.bmp image1.bmp image2.bmp image3.bmp


palcat -o merged.bmp image1.bmp image2.bmp image3.bmp


palcat -o merged.bmp -o wtf.bmp image1.bmp image2.bmp image3.bmp




Any comments would be appreciated.

The only addition to the command-line parameters is the "-i" option. This specifies which image in the list is the one you want to end up with as the output (-o). If you do not specify this parameter, then the first file listed will be used instead (which is what happens in the current palcat). Will give you a copy of image2.bmp with the palettes of image1.bmp and image3.bmp attached in the corresponding order. The colors used in image2.bmp will be shifted according to how many palette entries are in image1.bmp. Will give you a copy of image1.bmp with the palettes of image2.bmp and image3.bmp attached in the corresponding order. Will give you a copy of wtf.bmp with the palettes of image1.bmp, image2.bmp, and image3.bmp pre-appended in the corresponding order. The patch is attached to this message, which also corrects a typo in scc_param.c I have tested the modifications, and they seem to work fine.
