[mapserver-users] hue, saturation, value -> RGB

[Pushkar Pradhan]

Thanks to everybody,
I did it in photoshop, that exe program, but as Chip has said the Arcview
values of H,S and V are different, thus most programs won't let me use a
Saturation value of 255 etc.
Are these avenue scripts inbuilt in arcview, can anybody point out how to
use them to do conversion.
