Converting GFX question
Asking for friend. Quote follows:
---
Morning! Does anyone of you please know a Window C64 converter that would not do any processing and just save data in C64 format?
What's my problem: I prepared a 4-color (so that I can convert to multicolor sprites) picture in Gimp and then ran it through a converter, which decided to just add a 5th color. 🤦♂️

Thank you for quick help everybody. |

Quote: Quoting WotnauAs it looks like it needs command line input, I won't be able to use it (see my post on use case and user above), but if someone more PC literate finds this thread later, it may serve them just great. :) Come on, what's so hard about using the command line to run a program with a few simple options? :)
ask anyone who tried to compile your loader and failed =) |

Quoting Oswaldask anyone who tried to compile your loader and failed =) Strawman argument. Using a precompiled tool like Burglar's has a lot fewer likely breaking points than building something yourself. =)
(Besides, some people were quite delighted how easy building the loader is once you have the dependencies in place and know how those standard tools like make etc. work. =D) |

nope, thats not a strawman. also that it needs a precompiled tool and dependencies and learning make just proves my point. its not about saying your loader sucks, I view it as one of the biggest achievment of mankind, just showing how complicated CLI can be. |

They can be complicated, but it's not the case this time.
What triggers me are people who ask for help, and when they get it they start to moan that they won't use it because some stupid excuse. |

LOL. Supposed coders and their fear of commandlines. |

Quoting Oswald.. that it needs a precompiled tool and dependencies and learning make just proves my point.. You are mixing things up. png2prg 1.2 is the precompiled tool that will run an any OS, it has literally zero dependencies, it's static binary.
Just run "png2prg.exe bla.png" and you will get a bla.prg with the gfx data (koala, hires, chars or sprites).
For compiling Krilllloader, you need dependencies installed, not to be compared with a simple gfx converter.

I disagree, bash is turing-complete :) |

Quoting I disagree, bash is turing-complete :) Yeah, I know, but reading readme-files, typing "make", googling error messages and installing dependencies doesn't seem very much like coding to me. |
