The IL imgtools utility imgview should do any of this for you. If you load an
img, then do 'save as' you can specify a format to save as or just have imgview
infer from the file name ( eg .bw or .rgb ), you can also set attributes like
color model ( eg luminance, rgb etc ) or data type. imgcopy will do the same (
and more I expect ) but isn't interactive although faster for doing many images
in a script say. The IL imgtcl script language would allow you to do much more
trick stuff if you needed to ( some samples under /usr/share/il ).

This is all installed from imgtools on you O/S CD or get IL 3.1.1 eoe ( inc
imgtools ) from www.sgi.com/Products/Evaluation/

Cheers
Rob
