- RetinaFlick 1.0
-
- (Your basic .doc file.)

-
- RetinaFlick is a program which plays FLI and FLC animations on the Retina
- graphics card for the Amiga. It is similar to Flitina and the FLI/FLC loader
- module of MainActor (when used in conjunction with the Universal Retina
- loader). How is it different?
-
- (1) You get the source code, based on the source code for Xflick (a FLI/FLC
- player for X windows).
-
- (2) You don't have to pay a shareware fee.
-
- There are only a few command line options:
-
- -d<number> Specify a frame delay in 1/70ths of a second. (If you don't
- supply this, RetinaFlick will use the delay specified in the FLI/FLC
- animation.)
- -r<number> Specify the number of times to repeat the animation. (If not
- specified, the animation is looped twice.)
- -? Print out a listing of command line options.
- -h
-
- You *must* supply the name of the FLI/FLC animation file on the command line.
- There aren't that many sanity checks, so if you do something brain damaged
- like specify the -d and/or -r command line options and not the name of the
- animation file, you'll probably cause strange behavior.
-
- If you want to use part or all of the code in time_routines.c or
- time_routines.h, please contact me for permission.
-
- Thanks to Ron Schell, Michael Pall, and Klaus Ehrenfried for the version
- of xflick from which I took my original FLI/FLC decoding routines.
