ABOUT IMAGER
Imager is an image editing program for Windows 95/NT. Draw your own images
from scratch or add some cool effects to already existing ones. Currently
supported formats are: GIF, JPEG, JFIF, PCX, TGA, ICO, WMF, DIB, RLE and BMP.
PLUG-INS INFO
The plug-ins are DCOM (ActiveX) OLE dynamic link libraries (DLL).
The project name of the plugin must be the same as the filename, and
the class must be PlugInClass. Inside PlugInClass there must be a
function called getname. THis function is used as a property,
so the only code inside of it, is to return a string type
representing the plugin's name. (Like "Noise plugin" in the sample
plugin). Also, there must be a function called DisplayForm, that runs
the plugin. That function must load a bitmap (.BMP) file, with the name
that is passed. The extansion doesn't must to be .BMP, but the file is
built like a bitmap. After exectution the plugin, it must delete (To save
disk space) the file passed, and create a new one, with the same name.
