Overview
MGR bitmap is an image file format associated with the ManaGeR (or MGR) windowing system.
Identification
Apparently, MGR bitmap files do not conventionally have a filename extension.
Files begin with a two-byte ASCII signature:
"yz" = modern format, 8-bit aligned "yx" = modern format, squeezed "xz" = old format, 1-bit, 32-bit aligned "zz" = old format, 1-bit, 16-bit aligned "zy" = old format, 8-bit, 16-bit aligned
Software
- Netpbm: mgrtopbm, pbmtomgr
- MGR source code
