More on reading Image files.

Thanks to everybody who has responded with the usual comp.lang.ada courtesy=
 to my question regarding being able to read the RGB colour ratios of pixel=
s in an image file.

My purpose in asking was to design an encryption program that would encrypt=
 image files in the same way that I am encrypting text files by creating a =
kind of front end to my successful existing Ada-95 cipher.

I think it may be interesting to readers to tell you how far I think I have=
 got with a solution to the problem that I posed that albeit outside of Ada=
 may still be of interest to readers who are competent enough to consider a=
 Java program as a pragma to my cipher in Ada-95.

You might let me know as feedback for the future if you think that is feasi=
ble i.e. a pragma program to an Ada program.

Without further ado here=92s a link that you might like to look at.

http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/3403921/Processing-Image-Pi=
xels-using-Java-Getting-Started.htm

According to the preface, this is exactly what I wanted and I was delighted=
 with it but it is a sponsored download and the stumbling block questionnai=
re was beyond my ken.

I gave up after several attempts.

I=92m putting the whole matter on the back burner until later now but it wi=
ll be a Java solution eventually I think =96 not an Ada one.=20

If  some kind reader manages to get past the questionnaire and  downloads a=
nything perhaps they would tell me.=20

Many thanks to everybody.
