to continue programming such programs or just making updates of
this one. Send bug-reports, money or whatever to :

Usage :
=======
To get a help "how to use" KILBM V1.12, just type "KILBM ?" in the
CLI/Shell-Window.
Then you'll get a full explanation of all of it's possibilities.
Note : EHB- (Extra_-Half-Brite-) Graphics should be displayed without
any problems. Also HAM- (Hold_And_Modify-) Graphics.
But don't blame me, if it doesn't work (but you may report it ;-)
I didn't organize large tests =:)
History :
=========
V1.00 - V1.10 :
---------------
- Private work versions. Not released.
V1.11 :
-------
- First official released FREEWARE version.
V1.12 :
-------
- Hopefully fixed a bug, that would have caused problems, when saving
Screens other than 640x256.
Note : Overscan limit is (as far as I know) 704x283 or 736x290.
KILBM also manages things like 724x283 (x + 20), but other
programs might not accept this.
- Well it also seems, that now brushes are displayed correctly.
(Tested with ENV:sys/pointer.ilbm (Brush) of the WB V2.04.
Showing of ENV:sys/palette.ilbm (Brush f. Colors) also didn't cause
any problems.)
- "doc-fixes"
- translated some german output-texts into english (and "sorted" them
new)
