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.
The PICON file extension, short for Personal Icon, is primarily used for small personal icons. These icons are commonly employed in digital satellite receivers to identify various channels and on websites to add small icons to the web address bar. The PICON format, classified as a raster image file, supports multiple operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its history traces back to its use in Dreambox satellite receivers, where it enhanced user interface customization.
