This is a list of changes from previous versions. If you're new to QPEG,
please read QPEG.DOC.
Versions prior to 0.5b were beta versions, released only to a small number
of people.
QPEG 0.5b
~~~~~~~~~
First official release. I still call it beta, since some drivers are
not tested and may not work.
QPEG 1.0c
~~~~~~~~~
* No beta version, but not a final release either. I guess there will
never be a "final" release.
* Added support for Yh1v1 upsampled color images. Suggested by Tom Lane
(IJG). QPEG should now be able to view any JFIF compliant JPEG file,
and even some non-JFIF files.
* Switching back to text mode on exit now restores the same mode that was
used before starting QPEG. Suggested by Lutz Kotoll.
* Added GIF support. Suggested by thousands of users :-)
* Added TBH logo. Suggested by me :-)
* Added ability to delete and copy files. Also suggested by many users.
* If the preview's height is smaller than 61 pixels, its size is doubled.
In other words, pictures with an original height of more than 480 are
scaled down by a factor of 8, otherwise by a factor of 4.
* The executable (QPEG.EXE) is smaller.
* Added ability to switch greyscaled display on/off ('$' key).
* Added dithering routines for hicolor modes. Now hicolor looks
almost like truecolor.
* Added initialization file (QPEG.INI) for user changeable defaults:
- video mode
- file information on/off
- preview on/off
- beeps on/off
- hicolor dithering on/off
- greyscaled display on/off
Most of these settings can be changed within QPEG.
* Fixed problems when viewing greyscaled images in hicolor or truecolor
modes.
* Fixed preview code which caused errors on some VGAs. The preview
should now work on _ANY_ VGA graphics card.
* Changed ATI driver. I'm not sure if it's fixed, since I can't test it.
* Fixed VESA driver.
* New driver for DELL S3 graphics cards. Thanks to Lenny Lim!
(If it doesn't work, try the VESA driver.)
Coming soon:
tagging, slideshow, automatic video mode selection, file masks,
changeable file sort order, and more.
