Convert RLA to XV

The RLA file extension stands for Run-Length Encoded, Version A, a bitmap image format developed by Alias/Wavefront. It is primarily used for storing raster graphics with run-length encoding to compress image data efficiently. RLA files are compatible with various image viewing and editing software, such as XnView. This format was popularized in the early days of computer graphics for its ability to handle arbitrary image channels and support efficient storage of large images.

The XV file extension stands for Khoros Visualization Image File Format, developed by AccuSoft Corporation for storing raster images used in scientific and engineering applications. It supports various image types, including grayscale, color, and multi-spectral images, making it useful for visualizing complex datasets. Although now considered somewhat obsolete, it played a significant role in the evolution of digital imaging technologies.
