Choacury Raster Image (RIM)
RIM is a custom Bitmap file type designed to work for ChoacuryOS, there are tools provided that allow you to easily convert between a normal Bitmap and a RIM. It’s similar to but not exactly a Bitmap, there are a few extra headers that make it easier for ChoacuryOS to work certain things out when drawing the image. In addition to that, a standard Bitmap uses BGR, but RIM uses RGB (It makes more sense). RIM by default supports RGBA. So the channels look like this:
| Channel | Index |
|---|---|
| R | 0 |
| G | 1 |
| B | 2 |
| A | 3 |
INSTEAD OF:
| Channel | Index |
|---|---|
| B | 0 |
| G | 1 |
| R | 2 |
Which is what it’s like on normal Bitmaps
ChoacuryOS supports different image formats including, but not limited to:
- Bitmap
- RIM
- More to come later ʕᵔᴥᵔʔ
