- Description
- HIR files are a type of Commodore 64 graphic file, containing high-resolution bitmap graphics. They can be opened and edited with specialized Commodore 64 software, such as the Hires C64 program.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
