1 # QMK QGF/QFF RLE data schema {#qmk-qp-rle-schema} 2 3 There are two "modes" to the RLE algorithm used in both [QGF](quantum_painter_qgf)/[QFF](quantum_painter_qff): 4 5 * Non-repeating sections of octets, with associated length of up to `128` octets 6 * `length` = `marker - 128` 7 * A corresponding `length` number of octets follow directly after the marker octet 8 * Repeated octet with associated length, with associated length of up to `128` 9 * `length` = `marker` 10 * A single octet follows the marker that should be repeated `length` times. 11 12 Decoder pseudocode: 13 ``` 14 while !EOF 15 marker = READ_OCTET() 16 17 if marker >= 128 18 length = marker - 128 19 for i = 0 ... length-1 20 c = READ_OCTET() 21 WRITE_OCTET(c) 22 23 else 24 length = marker 25 c = READ_OCTET() 26 for i = 0 ... length-1 27 WRITE_OCTET(c) 28 29 ```
