I seem to remember from a while back a discussion about a program
which reduces a bunch of pixmaps to a common colourmap. I hunted
around in the archives and couldn't find what I was looking for.

My problem is that I have designed a new set of icons which started
off all using the same 32 colours. However, I designed them using a
package on my Windows PC at home as the graphics stuff here at work is
not good for this kind of stuff. This meant I had to save them as GIFs
and then convert them to XPMs. I also reduced the number of colours
for each pixmap to 8, however the total number of unique colours for
the whole set has jumped to about 150 (!) . What I want to do is force
them all back to having the same 8 colours between them..

Does anybody know a package that'll do this?

By the way, if you want a quick look at the icons there's a GIF of the
whole lot somewhere on one of my web pages..

Cheers,

Martin.
