GUN to PGM Conversion: FAQ
What are GUN files?
GUN is an image file format associated with Gunpaint, a currently obsolete drawing software program initially designed for Commodore 64 computers. This brand was highly popular in the 1980s and 1990s, being one of the first types of personal computers to become widely used by home users. The GUN format might also have been compatible with other models of 8-bit Commodore computers, such as the Commodore 16, 128 or SX-64. Images created with Gunpaint are most likely difficult to open using regular image viewers, so converting them is the best option.
What are PGM files?
The PGM or Portable Graymap format is part of a package of open source graphics programs called Netpbm. Other Netpbm formats include PPM (Portable Pixmap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap), also known under the collective name of PNM (Portable Anymap). A PGM file includes a grayscale image, can work on a UNIX platform, as well as on Windows or Mac OS X, and can render a scope of up to 255 grayscale colors.
