- SUBJECT:
- --------
- Well, this is another program written because I needed it.
- Manipulating hires interlaced 16 colors pictures on my old A500 with 512k
- of Chip ram with a paint program was really impossible. More precisely, I
- had to resize a 511×511 picture into a 640×511 one. Considering that CHIP
- ram is only necessary when displaying the picture, I decided to write a
- simple program that could rescale horizontally a picture, for which my
- 2.5MB fast ram should be large enough. So Rescale was born.
-
- USAGE:
- ------
- The program is used ONLY form the CLI by giving it the names of the
- source and destination files, and the number of pixels per row for the
- destination file. The source file must be an UNCOMPRESSED IFF ILBM file
- (just like one output by ITex2IFF (that's why I wrote this program (this
- stupid PC doesn't have a good resolution ! (How many parenthesis do I have
- to close ?)))). Although I have not tried it, I guess it won't work with
- HAM pictures.
- The program will only work under Kickstart 2.04 or newer, and
- requires errormsg.library V1.0+ and iffparse.library to run.
- errormsg.library is copyright 1994 by myself, you can find it in PD
- libraries (it is FREEWARE).
