Convert FAX to UIL

The FAX file extension, short for "facsimile", is primarily associated with digital fax documents. These files are typically saved in TIFF format and are used to store images of documents sent or received via fax software. Historically, fax technology allowed the transmission of scanned printed material over telephone networks, a practice that became widespread in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, FAX files facilitate the digital handling of these documents, enabling easy archiving and viewing with compatible image viewers.

The UIL file extension stands for User Interface Language and is associated with the X-Motif UIL Table. It is a plain text file format used by the UIL compiler to create user interfaces for the X Window System. UIL files define menus, buttons, dialog boxes, and other graphical user interface components. Introduced by The Open Group, this format allows developers to describe the initial state of a user interface, including widgets, resources, and callbacks. The UIL file is compiled into a UID file, which can be accessed by Motif Resource Management functions within an application.
