I would just replace the content of an similar existing tiff file created in Gimp:
PROGRAM ReplaceTiff;
VAR
C: CHAR;
F,F2: FILE;
I: ShortCard;
L: MedCard;
BEGIN
Reset(F,'Old.tif',1);
Rewrite(F2,'New.tif',1);
{ Save Header }
BlockRead(F, C,1);
BlockWrite(F2, C,1);
BlockRead(F, C,1);
BlockWrite(F2, C,1);
BlockRead(F, I,2);
BlockWrite(F2, I,2);
BlockRead(F, L,4); { L needed later! }
BlockWrite(F2, L,4);
{ Write Body }
FOR Y := 1 TO yResolution DO BEGIN
FOR X := 1 TO xResolution DO BEGIN
BlockWrite(F2, a[X,Y],1);
END;
END;
{ Save Trailer }
Seek(F,L);
WHILE NOT EOF(F) DO BEGIN
BlockRead(F, I,2);
BlockWrite(F2, I,2);
END;
Close(F2);
Close(F);
END.
I installed gpc and all required or recommended packages using
aptitude.
The manual apparently contains no mention of graphics
output.
But that's why I downloaded Pascal in the first place!
Looking through the mailing list archives, I find mention of a GRX
library.
But when I do a search for "grx" within aptitude,
I come up empty.
All I want to do is create a 432 pixel x 378
pixel image with over 2000
different 24-bit colors, all in a very
precise pattern, a fractal shape as a
matter of fact. In the time it
is taking me to find any programming
language that will let me do
this, I suppose I could do it manually with
a graphics editor,
although this would be somewhat tedious.
I can create a 432x378
array of strings, where each string is the
hexadecimal code for a
24-bit color. How can I turn this array into
an image? Does anyone
know of a programming language which
DOES do graphics?
Thanks for your patience.
