Yes, an XCMD is like a DLL only for Macs. It means external command (there are also XFCNs - external functions). I have a script that converts RGB <-> HSV if you are interested. As Monte and others have shown, scripting in different ways can dramatically alter the speed of execution. Perhaps my script might be as fast as your DLL :-) If you would like me to send it, email me off-list.
Cheers,
Sarah

Thanks, and sorry Chipp, I am not only new to Transcript but I also know
nothing at all about Macs. I presume that an XCMD is the Mac version of a
Windows DLL (?) I am sure that it would help, but I am not sure to what
degree. I have only ever written one DLL in my life which is for the said
eraser program in VB (due to be launched soon). It converts RGB to HSL and
v.v. By doing the calculations in a DLL rather than in the program the
saving was about 15%. Although this 15% was crucial in the eraser routine I
wrote, it was generally a disappointment: I expected a much bigger saving.
