I'd like a utility which removes unwanted information from FCS1.0 or FCS2.0 standard list mode files.
For FACScan files created by FACScan Research Software (ca. 1988), this could reduce the file size by about two-thirds! :3_3_21[1]:
What I have in mind is removing FL2 and FL3 for single
color work
(the FACScan software lacks this option although it is present in the FACStar software),
and
reducing the resolution from 1024 channels to 256 channels (which reduces the space consumed from 2 bytes per parameter-event to 1).
Such a utility might also offer an option of inserting additional sample description
or other information.
Does anyone know of such a utility?
:emot0:
I'm considering writing it
but
I'd rather not re-invent the wheel
(for the hundredth time or so).
