Sorry, no tool types are supported from Workbench. You can now throw 2.0s poor Display program away! You may now display ANIM files with ALook. DELAY will be the time between frames and LOOP will endlessly repeat the anim. Options (parentheses show the shorten form): ALL recursively scan all subdirectories during wildcard search. ANNO (A) displays ANNO hunk information on IFF file. DELAY (D) must be followed by a number that specifies the duration of delay between two screens. LOOP (L) if specified, repeatedly displays files. Unless the file is an ANIM. NOBREAK (NB) disables all breaking features. NOOVERSCAN (NO) stops a picture from being put in overscan mode. VIEW (V) enables the view-mode report. SHAM... Hunk SHAM ("Split" Ham mode) DHAM... Hunk CTBL (Dynamic "Split" Ham mode) DHRS... Hunk CTBL (Dynamic Hires) MPAL... Hunk PCHG (Palette Changes/Multi-Palette) HIRES LORES Places ILBMS in HIRES or LORES viewing modes. LACE | NOLACE Puts ILBM in LACE or Non-Interlace mode. HAM Sets ILBMs view-mode to HAM. HALFBRITE View-mode to EXTRA_HALFBRITE. Remember HIRES is not allowed in HAM or EXTRA_HALFBRITE modes. From inside ALook: ESC, C, RIGHT MOUSE ... Abort SPACE, LEFT MOUSE ..... Next Picture/ANIM Q .... Resets next picture's ViewMode to its default NOTE: If (h,1,i,or n) have been used you may wish to hit Q to reset! o... Reset overscan h... Hires 1 ... Lores i ... Interlace n... Noninterlace Cursor keys plus CTRL, SHIFT, or AMIGA act as scrollers. You can use the mouse to scroll around real fast. (excluding "Split"s) Known Bugs: Non standard superbitmap or overscan Dynamic Hires ILBMs may have problems. (DHRS, with CTBL hunk type) Note: You need iff.library for ALook to work. THE UNIVERSAL IFF LIBRARY FOR THE AMIGA BY CHRISTIAN A. WEBER, ZURICH/SWITZERLAND History of ALook: v3.0 -> v3.1 o Fixed HAM and EXTRA_HALFBRITE checking when switching to hires. o ANIMs and ILBMs shown together do not crash now. o Blacks out screen after ANIM so you don't see the ILBM shown just before the ANIM twice. o Found a MatchFirst() problem I had that caused a crash if a volume (DEVFOO:) did not exit. o Now correctly frees Bitmap memory if a screen can not be opened. o Overscan DHRS (CTBL hunk type) should now work better using a smaller screen width of <= 640. Still not perfect... v3.a -> v3.0 o Added ANIM support. o ALook now accepts PCHG (Palette Change/Multi-Palette) hunks. o SHAMS are displayed properly now. o ANNO option added. o SPLIT (for displaying non-standard ILBMs) option removed. o Other less important and forgotten bugs removed.
