That depends entirely on what the ASCII file contains. Is it a comma separated list of RGB values? Or is it a uuencode of the binary data?

Depending on the formatting you may not need PIL, but it all depends on what the ASCII contains. > So i wanted to know how to convert the > file format in python... is it possible by Numpy ?? You may only need one of the encode/decode libraries for something like uuencoding or maybe the struct module will do if its just raw bitmap data. > other alternative to convert an ascii into an bitmap image directly > in > PIL without Numpy?? Yes you can always do it manually but it all depends on the format of the data. -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
