- SCALEPCX
- --------
-
- ScalePCX scales a PCX file up or down to a user-provided size.
-
- Use it like this :-
-
- SCALEPCX nicepic.pcx [/x360] [/y480]
-
- nicepic.pcx is the file to convert
-
- /x360 scales the image to be 360 pixels WIDE ( horizontally )
- The value should be between 1 and 800 inclusive.
-
- /y480 scales the image to be 480 pixels DEEP ( vertically )
- The value should be between 1 and 600 inclusive.
-
- If only one scaling parameter is provided, the other will not be altered.
-
- For example, if PIC1.PCX is a 640 by 480 256 colour image, and you want
- to reduce it to 360 by 480, then you would use the command
-
- SCALEPCX PIC1.PCX /x360
-
- Once SCALEPCX has scaled the image, it is displayed centred on the screen.
- If the image is too large to display, the cursor keys may be used to scroll
- around and view the complete picture.
-
- To leave the program, press the Escape key. The scaled image will be written
- to a file; the file name is derived from the original name, with the two
- characters "S_" added to the beginning. If this causes the file name to
- exceed 8 characters in length, the trailing characters will be lost.
- For example, HORSEBOX.PCX will become S_HORSEB.PCX.
