- Short: Correctly save an IFF/ILBM picture
- Author: Curt Esser
- Uploader: camge@ix.netcom.com
- Type: dev/basic
- Requires: WB 2.01+, Blitz
-
- Uploaded Oct 27 1999
-
- An easy to use function that corrects the bugs in
- the standard Blitz commands "SaveBitMap" and "SaveShape"
-
- The bugs fixed are:
-
- 1} The optional CAMG chunk is now saved
- this will allow picture viewiers and art programs
- to determine the correct screen mode for the image
- -This also allows you to save HAM pictures
-
- 2} The correct image width is now saved with the picture
- -no more empty "blank" space on the right hand side
-
- 3} The destination volume is checked for enough free space
- before saving - no more program lockups if the disk
- doesn't have enough room for the iff file...
-
- 4} No "SetErr" error trap needed - Intuition will now
- automatically handle "Disk Write Protected", etc...
-
- 5} You can also save bitmaps created by the OS functions,
- as well as standard Blitz bitmaps...
