Command line format: paljoin <input-text-file> <output-palette>
The input text file is read a line at a time. Lines beginning with ;
or #
are treated as comments. Blank lines are ignored. A valid command lines contains a string identifying the source palette, followed by index_base
and range
values specifying which colours are to be copied from the source palette. An additional index_base
value locates the copied colour range in the output palette.
The text file illustrated below could be used to combine, in a single palette, the first 128 colours in a strip palette (strip.pal
) and the last 128 colours in a texture palette (texture.pal
).
The following command line would generate the palette described in newpal.txt
, and save it as new.pal
:
paljoin newpal.txt new.pal
