- written by Steve Quartly

- version 1.1
-
- What is it?
- -----------
-
- SuperLoader.loader is a flexible loader module that allows you to load any
- of the image types supported by superview.library directly into OpalPaint.
-
- Installing
- ----------
-
- Copy SuperLoader.loader to OpalLoaders:
-
- Don't change it's name or it may not be recognized by OpalPaint.
-
- You will also need superview.library, it is available on Aminet:
-
- Directory: gfx/show
- File : svlib117U.lha (117 is the version number,
- it will probably be different by now.)
-
- If you are using OpalPaint 2.3 or higher, right click on the load menu item
- and it should automatically be recognized by OpalPaint.
-
- If however you are using an earlier version you will need to run the
- program RemoveLSI to remove all loaders from the system, and then run the
- program InstallLSI to re-install all the loaders, and include SuperLoader.
-
- If you don't have RemoveLSI or InstallLSI they are on Aminet:
-
- Directory: gfx/board
- File : lsidocs.lha (I'm not sure of the case?)
-
- Operation
- ---------
-
- If you have installed it correctly you should be able to right click on the
- Load Image icon and see a list of loaders available to OpalPaint.
-
- Superloader should now appear in this list.
-
- Select SuperLoader.
-
- You can now select any of the image formats supported by superview.library
- straight into OpalPaint.

- History
- -------
-
- v0.0 - First the Earth cooled.
-
- v1.0 - Initial release. No known bugs! (Ha)
-
- v1.1 - Found a bug in the way planar data was passed to and handled by
- OpalPaint, consequently simple palette mapped images would crash the
- machine! Now fixed.
