Convert MRW to SIX

The MRW file extension, short for Minolta Raw Image, is a raw photo file format developed by Minolta for their Dimage digital cameras. It stores uncompressed, unprocessed image data directly from the camera's CCD sensor, allowing photographers extensive post-processing control over elements like exposure and color balance. After Sony acquired Minolta, the MRW format was gradually replaced by Sony's ARW format, but MRW files remain in use, especially with legacy Minolta cameras. These files are compatible with various photo editing tools, ensuring continued accessibility for high-fidelity image editing.

The SIX file extension, short for "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Introduced initially to send bitmap graphics to DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, SIX later facilitated the transfer of soft fonts to terminals such as the VT220. This format encodes images using a series of six-pixel-high patterns, making it efficient for transmitting graphics over 7-bit serial links. Rediscovered around 2010, SIX remains in use with modern terminal emulators for tasks like video playback.
