PABX background

PABX background is a raster image format.

We have not located any information about its origin, but because XnView supports writing it, we can deduce some things about it.

Format details
It is apparently a text-based format, and always uses a color palette. It is somewhat like binary PNM, modified to use only ASCII characters.

Here is an example file:

PIX 23 12 8 ` #ffffffffffff . #00002626ffff a #00007f7f0e0e b #000000000000 c #000000000000 d #000000000000 e #000000000000 ``````````````````````` ``````````````````````` ``.....````````````#``` ````.``````````````#``` ````.```aaa```bbb`###`` ````.``a```a`b```b`#``` ````.``aaaaa``bb```#``` ````.``a````````b``#``` ````.``a```a`b```b`#``` ````.```aaa```bbb``##`` ```````````````````````
