File Encoder

Completed Posted Aug 5, 2004 Paid on delivery

Revised Description:

A program named "Flower" that reads any file (binary or ascii) and creates a new file that contains a Device-Dependent bitmap representation of the original file. The hexadecimal value of each byte determines the bitmap pixel colors. (00 = 0 = Black, FF = 255 = White) The name of the file read in should be saved within the headers of the output file for decoding purposes.

Output files should use the extension ".MLS" and no other extensions should be made available. Although the file could be opened in an image viewer, it is not necessary. Dimensions of the output file are optional at this stage.

The program should also open ".MLS" files and decode them back to their original structure and name by converting the pixels back into bytes.

A user-friendly interface with basic menu options should be included. Progress meters should be visible either on or above the program window showing how much encoding or decoding has completed, a small description showing what is going on, and a start & stop button in case the user wishes to interrupt a process.

More information on the style of bitmap I have in mind can be found at the following location:
