README.TEXT - IE/DOpus5 Support Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The scripts in this directory are written for users of the disk util
Directory Opus 5.x. They perform various tasks in IE but with main control
from DOpus. DOpus is ideal for batch processing of images and easy handling
of file information.
The scripts require DOpus 5.0 or higher and ImageEngineer 3.0 or higher.
They do not support DOpus 4.x or lower since those versions use a completely
different set of arexx commands. Both DOpus and IE must be running when the
scripts are executed.
Included support files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"buttons/IE_Functions" - a ready-to-use button bank for DOpus with all
currently available DOpus support functions.
"arexx/IE_Import.dopus5" - imports all selected files in the source dir into
Image Engineer. Only one (1) source lister may be selected.
"arexx/IE_Convert.dopus5" - converts all selected files in the source dir
to a user-specified output format. Output can be either in raw or rendered
format. Rendering of output supports locking of a single user-selected
palette for all converted images. Output files will be saved to destination
dir. One (1) source and one (1) destination lister may be selected.
»> NOTE that some fileformats do *not* support certain number of <«
»> bitplanes and/or image sizes. If you do not select the correct <«
»> output format the script will fail to save those images. Read <«
»> the SuperView-Library manual for more info about file formats. <«
Install support files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Very simple. Copy all files to their corresponding directory in the
"DOpus5:" directory. (where DOpus is installed)
To use, just load the button bank, select your images and press a button!
