Which is now done. It took a bit of thrashing around (I didn't realize Ada rounded when converting from floating point to integer) to get exact agreement with the result for example 2 created with the C implementation, but eventually I got there. One thing revealed by this example is our Ada bindings were much too conservative about the allowed range of plcol0 indices. I changed that from 0..15 to the much more reasonable 0..255. Example 2 uses 116 different cmap0 indices, but some users may want more. I chose to limit the range in the bindings to 0..255 since that corresponds to 24 bits total for r, g, and b and is more than adequate to handle example 2. Jerry, please review and correct any strange things I did in Ada for x02a.adb. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
