- !SprSort V1.01
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Purpose
- ~~~~~~~
-
- !SprSort is a simple utility to sort all the sprites in a sprite file
- into alphabetical order.
-
- It has an alternate function that renames the first sprite inside a
- sprite file to be the same as the leaf of the filename. This was
- implemented because the way that ChangeFSI names saved sprites (as
- a mode identifier) has always annoyed me - it prevents me from merging
- several CFSI'd images into a single file.
-
-
- How to use it
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Start up the program in the normal way by double-clicking on the !SprSort
- icon. To sort the sprites in a spritefile, simply drag the file to the
- SprSort icon on the iconbar. After some disc activity, the file will be
- written back to the same file, but with the sprites sorted alphabetically.
-
- Because SprSort does not load the entire sprite file into memory, it is
- not terribly memory-hungry - typically, it will increase in size by the
- size of the single largest sprite in the file.
-
- NB. You can drag multiple sprite files to the iconbar icon, and they will
- be renamed in sequence.
-
- NNB. SprSort should not be run from within an archive - it will run /very/
- slowly. In addition, it will not run at all from a write-protected medium.
-
-
- Iconbar Menu
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- The iconbar menu has the standard Info and Quit items. In addition, there
- are two other entries, entitled "Sort sprites" and "Name = leaf", which is
- use to select between the two functions provided.
