- ANSIartist 2.5 additional information file
- ===================================================================
-
- Welcome to ANSIartist 2.5!
-
- For ANSIartist, I developed a "multi-file-format-feature".
- With this feature, you are able to save a screen in several unique
- file formats, like ANSI or WildCat! 3.xx. But this feature, which
- should work based on DLL technology, was in a beta test stage and
- was a real good... toy. Well, I decided NOT to implement this
- feature in this version, because we had several problems with
- Borland Pascal's DPMI. So, ANSIartist 2.5 reads its format
- information for "extended formats" like WildCat! 3.x from *.DFF
- files (dimas file format). This file contains all information for a
- 256-color based format (each color has its own color code).
- Well, ANSIartist 2.5 needs this files if you want to execute an
- Open or Save command (must be in current directory). It does work,
- ok, but DFF it isn't very fast in loading files. I'm very sorry,
- but the next version of ANSIartist will offer a more powerful
- format support.
-
- STOP!!! If you want us to create a DFF file for you (e.g. for
- SuperBBS), send us a (widely) complete documentation and a demo
- file of this format. We will return a DFF file to you...
-
-
- Thanks for reading this file! I hope you like the product...
- and I hope that you are registering ANSIartist, too!
