Both formats, briefly

PCX

PCXIN

PCX is a DOS era format, originally the native file of PC Paintbrush, and for years it was how images moved between early PC programs. It uses run length encoding, supports palettes up to 24 bit color, and is simple enough that a decoder fits in a page of code. Nothing new is written in PCX today. You run into it in old archives, scanner utilities and retro computing projects.

WBMP

WBMPOUT

WBMP stores one bit per pixel, black or white with nothing in between, and was designed for the WAP browsers on early mobile phones. The files are tiny, which still matters on hardware with very little memory or bandwidth. Phones moved on long ago, but the same monochrome bitmap is exactly what embedded displays, e-paper panels and thermal label printers work in.
