Short: Show IFF struct & chunk contents. MUI Application.
Author: K.Drangmeister@insider.sub.de (Kay Drangmeister)
Uploader: drangmei@informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de (Kay Drangmeister)
Type: util/misc
IFF Master is a program that allows you to have a view inside the structure
of IFF files. It is not yet another picture viewer or sound sample player,
but it displays the internal entities (chunks) of a file. For example, the
headers of pictures (ILBM) or sound samples (8SVX) are displayed in clear,
so you can directly read the size and depth of the image or the sampling
rate.
Current features (V 1.4) include:
- MUI application
- localized GUI (with AmigaOS 2.1 or later)
- Extensive chunk type library (currently 46 form types, 257 known chunks,
79 of these with comprehensive structure description)
- Chunk contents are presented alternatively as structure, text or hexdump
- Bit fields and enumeration types are displayed in clear
- Fixed point values are printed in decimal (e.g. 8SVX.VHDR.Volume)
- Callback hooks for special attributes, e.g. the Mode-ID
inside the CAMG chunk is de-referenced (e.g. as "PAL: Hires").
- Colors in ILBM.CMAP chunks are displayed, with AmigaOS 3.0 or later.
- clipboard support
- chunk contents and partial FORMs can be saved
- AppWindow and AppIcon
Features new for V 1.4:
NEW Completely changed to GNU-C. Differences are: new startup code, no
more ANSI-C functions like `sprintf()' used, enabling some things like
localized output of floating point numbers.
FIX should finally run without locale.library
NEW Online help
NEW new chunk IDs: AMBA, AMDE, AMIN, AMHU, AMUN, EQE1, RESO, VARS, ...
NEW complete structure descriptions of system preference files, some new
hooks. Be sure to try out e.g. `IFFMaster ENV:sys/locale.prefs'.
NEW color descriptions (RGB values) are now also displayed as a
colorfield, if you have WB 3.0. Check out `IFFMaster
ENV:sys/palette.prefs' or any ILBM/CMAP. NOTE: You need some free pens
for this feature, so you may need to specify a deep screen for
IFFMaster inside MUIPrefs.
FIX <Clipboard> is now accepted as a name for the clipboard. So `Save' now
works as `Save Clip' when working on a clipboard file. As a
side-effect you can now enter `IFFMaster "<Clipboard>"' at the command
line to load directly from the clipboard.
FIX button key definitions did overlap
NEW 'non-printable' characters can now be displayed in the hex dump, if
the font comprises 256 characters. (Requested by Walter D÷rwald)
NEW some more editing capabilities (move chunks).
NEW Chunks containing text or binary data can be edited via text or binary
editors.
NEW new icon, which is also used as AppIcon now
