I need to convert a few seconds of video footage grabbed on a Mac and
stored in PICT2 format (8 bit raster) to some format that I can work
with on an SGI Iris.  Utilities I have tried so far on the Unix end
include SDSC imconv and PBM stuff.  The former dumps core when I try
to use it to convert PICT2's to Iris RGB files, the latter doesn't
handle PICT2's.  I have succeeded in making the PICT2 files into 
TIFF files using PixelPaint Professional, but when I used SDSC to convert
the TIFF files, it dropped the colour map information (which is VITAL)
on the floor.

What I need is PICT2 -> some reasonable format, taking account
of the colour map information.  I'd rather have the app run on the Unix
side, but Mac end stuff would be okay to.  I'm prepared to handle
multi-step stuff as well (i.e. SDSC supposedly handles GIF, so
if I could get PICT2->GIF, that might be enough - of course, how
well SDSC handles GIF is unknown to me at this point).

Thanks in advance
