Short: Powerful picture catalogger (v3.0). Many features !
Author: fcalendini@aix.pacwan.net <Frederic Calendini>
Uploader: fcalendini@aix.pacwan.net <Frederic Calendini>
Version: 3.0
Type: gfx/misc
This program allows to create indexes of reduced pictures. It offers many
possibilities and has some features that other programs of this type have
not... And it's totally free !
* Features :
- Fast (optimised for 68020+ processors).
- Compact.
- Doesn't use MUI, BGUI, Triton, ClassAct or any other GUI interface.
Only system's Gadtools.library, which seems really sufficient (and much more
memory saving)...
- Allows creation of 16 or 256 grayscale, or 256 colors thumbnails, with
high image quality.
- 68000 CPU and ECS modes supported.
- Supports XPK compression.
- Respects totally the AMIGA system.
- Customizable.
- Handles multi-volumes indexes.
- Capability to update indexes very easily (all is automatic).
- Very powerful system of actions associated to each picture format.
- Can also rename/move/delete pictures on disk.
- Very flexible thanks to the use of datatypes (you can even catalog your
fonts with the font.datatype, for example !)
- Can export the indexes into IFF files.
- Free !
* Requirements : An Amiga with OS 3.x, fast RAM recommended.
This program is CREATION-WARE (see doc for details)...
* changes from version 2.5 :
- You can now export the indexes into IFF panels. You can also export
thumbnails into individual IFF files.
- Added the "Update Index Files" function for total automatic indexes
updates.
- Added "Quick Scale" option (requires MPImage.library v8.2 or above).
- Added the "Minimize requesters" option.
- Now icons are renamed/moved/deleted along with the pictures files.
- Fixed a bug that caused a software failure when the thumbnails were taller
than wide.
- Fixed a bug in the sort method.
- Sorting can now be done with different criteria.
- Now the number of added thumbnails is displayed during addition and
completion.
- Now the data in the screen title bar are updated while the
addition/completion.
- Now you can add files with rather "exotic" names (containing parenthesis
and other reserved caracters), without wildcards conflicts.
- Now the "Picture Info" requester pops up if you click on a thumbnail name.
- Added an option that allows to remove some unimportant requesters.
- Added tooltypes handling. For the moment, two tool types are available :
FILE=<index name> (loads this index at each startup) and PRIORITY=<n>
(changes Collector priority). (see also @{"Running Collector " link Running}
for details about launching Collector from CLI ...
- Now if you move pictures with the "Change directory" function, file
overwriting is detected...
- If you reach the top/bottom of an multi-volumed index, Collector offers you
to load the previous/next part of this index.
- Now the "Update Index" function checks also for duplicated entries in the
index.
- Fixed some minor bugs and made other small improvements...
- Recompiled with SAS 6.58 compiler.
Have fun ! :-)
