HISTORY for PICFIB:
V1.0 released on 1994.11.06
V1.0a bugs fixed since V1.0
-drawing of buttons in TOOL window improved (vswr_mode)
-using lists that contain invalid pathnames caused bus error
if TOOL window was opened (NULL test)
-error messages that contained a long pathname caused an
address error (increased buffer+strncat)
-color reducing was buggy (palette compressing did not work)
-GIF files were rejected sometimes (version check was buggy)
-Owner drawn controls were sometimes invisible in 256 color modes
(vst_color was missing)
improvements since V1.0
-speed up of GIF loader by 10-20%
-changed internal memory management (reduced malloc calls)
-changed internal window management
-toggle picture & default palette with UNDO key
-toggle tags with keyboard (keys 1-4)
released on 1995.04.29
V1.0b bugs fixed since V1.0a
-fast GIF loader couldn't handle several GIF89 extensions
-internal memory management was not consistent, memory was
not released any more.
-when viewing pictures in monochrome resolutions suddenly
dithering was disabled, because some buffers weren't being
released
V1.1 bugs fixed since V1.0b
-when cancelling a load while a list was already loaded a bus
error occurred (current list was released BEFORE the OK to
load a new one was given)
improvements since V1.0b
-added TIF support
-added export of lists
V1.1a bugs fixed since V1.1 (many discovered by Joerg T.)
-closing of bitmap windows doesn't restore palette while tool
dialog was open (reimplementation of handle_wind_close)
-closing a bitmap window opened by browsing through the list
and selecting "Slideshow" caused bus error
(global TV was not reset on close)
-added "*.*" wildcard to current path when opening the file
select dialog for "New List...". Seemed to cause problems
with FREEDOM file selector.
-when allocation of picture failed, VDI buffer wasn't released
any more (get_picture)
-if there wasn't enough memory to allocate VDI transformation
buffer, a bus error occured (image_convert, NULL test)
-if a file caused an error condition during slideshow, the
slideshow was aborted. (different return codes added)
improvements since V1.1
-command line arguments are processed. So it's possible to
set PICFIB as application to display various picture
formats.
-progress bar is displayed for loading, dithering, color
reduction
-added JPEG picture support. (Need test of low memory
conditions with floppies)
-PICFIB now handles the AP_TERM message, causing the program
to terminate during shutdown. (Magic>2.0,Mint)
