0.0 Introduction
This is a little utility that prints a histogram table showing the
frequency of use of the different palette colours in an IFF ILBM
type picture. It also prints the dimensions of the picture and the
exact specification of the palette.
1.0 Running Hist
Hist can only be run from the CLI (this will probably be fixed soon).
There are two ways of invoking it. First just typing:
hist
will result in the copyright notice, short instructions, and the version
number being printed. By typing a command of the following format:
hist picture
Hist will process the "picture" file, and when it is done, will print
out a chart showing the colour, its r,g,b composition, the number of
times it was used, and the percentage of the picture that it comprises.
Note: the time to process a 320x200x32 colour picture is about 30 seconds.
2.0 Memory Usage
Hist must load the picture into ram, so users with only 512K and lots of
other things running might have probelms. Hist works REAL NICE on a 2.5Meg
Amiga!
3.0 Support
Any comments, suggestions, or bug reports you might care to make will be
gratefully received. If you are interested in seeing this program improve
much send a contribution ($10-$20 to me at the address above). My current
policy on improving the program is to release a new version for every 5
contributions I receive, or when I need a new feature!
