I have a Masscomp 5600 running RTU 3.0 with 1-plane, 1024 by 800
terminals.  Masscomp includes a program called scrdump that dumps
the screen image to a file; unfortunately they don't document the
format.  I could attempt to decode it, but I thought someone might
have already done the job.  I want to convert the scrdump output to
Impress format.  If I can't have that, does anyone have a detailed
explanation of the format written by scrdump?

Thanks in advance.

[I don't have the answer to that, but I do have another approach.
