- Description
- The RLE (Run Length Encoded Bitmap) file type is a bitmap image format that employs run-length encoding, a simple compression technique to minimize file size without losing image quality. This method works by compressing sequences of identical pixels (runs) into a single value and count, rather than storing each pixel individually. RLE is particularly effective for images with large areas of uniform color, such as icons, line drawings, and simple graphics. It can significantly reduce file sizes, making it beneficial for storage.
- X-Motif UIL Table (UIL) is a plain text file format used by the User Interface Language (UIL) compiler, which is used for creating user interfaces for the X Window System. This format is used for defining menus, buttons, dialog boxes, and other components of graphical user interfaces. UIL files are written using a set of keywords and parameters that can be used to set up the visual elements of the user interface.
