Description: HackSpr fixes problems with the palettes of 16-colour sprites caused by a minor bug in RISC OS 2. Sprites which have the colour &F0 as white come out with white looking grey when printed. HackSpr solves the problem by altering the palette to hold the correct 24-bit value. It can operate on sprite files, draw files that contain sprites, and directories or applications that contain sprite files.
