The Banana Table, at http://www.fys.ruu.nl/~oti/banana.html is a simple
GUI-operated program.
Features:
  -- Loads 8-bit PCX,LBM,BMP,TGA,RAW and 24-BIT TGA files, up to 100 at
a time.
  -- Saves 8-bit PCX,TGA and RAW files, and raw PAL-type palettes.
  -- Reduces colours from 256 to  any number less than 256 using Anthony
Dekker's implementation of neural network quantizers.
  -- Resizes bitmaps
  -- Calculates optimal palettes with any number of colors from 1 to 256
for up to 100 files at a time, and remaps these files.
  --  Concatenates, resizes and quantizes up to 100 files to form 1
giant bitmap with a single optimal palette, suitable for inclusion in
graphics engines.
  -- Calculates lighting palette for gouraud shading and gouraud-shaded
texturemapping.
  -- Is GUI operated, with basic online help.
  -- Is free. Source code ( C, djgpp, Allegro, pretty non-portable )
available on request.
