- .short
- Amiga port of the popular unix displayer
- .description
- This is a port of an X11 program called Xv (v3.10) by John Bradley.
-
- XV is a program that displays image files in GIF87, GIF89, JPEG,
- PBM/PGM/PPM, TIFF, PDS/VICAR Sun Rasterfile, and X11 Bitmap formats.
- XV runs on nearly ALL X displays: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 16, 24, and 32-bit,
- color, greyscale, and black/white.
-
- XV displays one image at a time in an output window, or on the root
- window. You can arbitrarily stretch or compress the window, and the
- picture will be rescaled to fit. You can rotate the picture in
- 90-degree steps. You can flip the picture vertically and
- horizontally. You can repeatedly 'crop' a picture (define a
- rectangular 'region-of-interest' and 'throw away' the rest). You can
- magnify any portion of the picture by any amount, up to the maximum
- size of your screen.
-
- XV allows you click on the picture to determine pixel RGB values and
- x,y coordinates. You can perform arbitrary 'gamma correction' on the
- picture both in RGB space and HSV space. You can specify the maximum
- number of colors that XV should use, for some interesting visual
- effects. You can have the program produce a stippled version of the
- picture using black and white, or any other pair of colors.
-
- XV can write images in a variety of formats, with many of the
- modifications you may have made to the picture saved as well. You can
- use XV to do format conversion. XV will also automatically uncompress
- compress-ed files, as well as read files from stdin.
