This directory contains a disk-based library designed to read/write IFF
files. There are examples in C, assembly, and Basic for using this library.
In order to use the examples, you must copy the ilbm.library and
requester.library files to your boot disk's libs drawer. You can do this
from the CLI, or from WB using the CopyLib program. Click on the CopyLib icon,
and if the requester appears, then the requester library has been copied.
Now select the ilbm.library, and click on "OK". Close the window to exit
the program.
The Basic example needs the requester.bmap and ilbm.bmap files copied to
your current directory.
The examples use the requester.library. This is a file selection requester
with many features. The necessary docs for developers are on Fish #203.
The StartUp code included on that disc had a bug in it. Use the StartUp code
included here as a replacement.
All the necessary docs for the ilbm.library are in this directory.
In addition, there are a few files of interest to non-developers.
ANIMInfo - Can display information about any ILBM or ANIM file such as size,
depth, number of colors, screen display mode, etc.
ANIMInfo filename
ShowPic - An ILBM viewer like CBM's display. Can cycle colors by pressing
the TAB key. This program can be made resident. Displays the
image until the user clicks the left mouse button. An additional
argument from the CLI can specify a number of seconds to display
the image. Written in assembly for small size.
ShowPic filename [seconds]
WorkBench users should click on the ShowPic icon and the icon for
the picture to be displayed, or change the Tool name to ShowPic
using the Info menu item on WorkBench.
I would appreciate any comments/suggestions/bug reports
