Thanks Klaus,

so, if I understand correctly,

my .ti2 has lines such as:

KEYWORD "SAMPLE_LOC"
NUMBER_OF_FIELDS 8
BEGIN_DATA_FORMAT
SAMPLE_ID SAMPLE_LOC RGB_R RGB_G RGB_B XYZ_X XYZ_Y XYZ_Z
END_DATA_FORMAT

NUMBER_OF_SETS 240
BEGIN_DATA
1 "K11" 100.00 100.00 100.00 95.106 100.00 108.84
2 "I15" 100.00 100.00 100.00 95.106 100.00 108.84
3 "G13" 100.00 100.00 100.00 95.106 100.00 108.84
4 "L10" 100.00 100.00 100.00 95.106 100.00 108.84
5 "E2" 20.784 30.980 58.824 10.700 9.4305 30.884
[...]

the output .ti3 will have the same RGB_R, RGB_G, and RGB_B, but would
have instead of the XYZ values the Lab ones.
and a header such as:

KEYWORD "SAMPLE_NAME"
NUMBER_OF_FIELDS 8
BEGIN_DATA_FORMAT
SAMPLE_ID SAMPLE_LOC RGB_R RGB_G RGB_B LAB_L LAB_A LAB_B
END_DATA_FORMAT

NUMBER_OF_SETS 240
BEGIN_DATA
1 "K11" 100.00 100.00 100.00 <LabL> <LabA> <LabC>
2 "I15" 100.00 100.00 100.00 <LabL> <LabA> <LabC>

I just have to make sure that the lab values I read match the
positions of the ti2 (no1 is in position K11 in my read Lab values).
