	This archive contains another DKB ray tracer .RAW to .GIF file
	format translator. I wrote this one because the only one I've
	ever seen out there on the BBS's (RAW2GIF) has never worked for
	me. I also wanted to control of the remapping of the extra colors
	myself, just to make sure I got the most accurate rendering on
	VGA.

	My thanks to all who have contributed to the original DKB and
	subsequent utilities. In particular to Roger T, Stevens for his
	book Fractal Programming and Ray Tracing with C++ (by M&T Books)
	from which my color mapping scheme is derived.
