Sun Raster (.sun)

The Sun Raster (SUN) file extension, originating from Sun Microsystems, is a bitmap image format used primarily on SunOS systems. Known for its versatility in storing raster graphics, it supports various color depths, from monochrome to 24-bit true color. Initially created for the Sun workstation's image processing software, it facilitated efficient graphical data manipulation and transmission. Over time, its straightforward structure and compatibility with different Unix-based systems ensured its adoption in diverse graphic applications. Today, while largely historical, the SUN file format remains an important part of the legacy of early computer graphics development.
