- I have uploaded hv12.zip, the latest version of hiview to the
- following locations:
-
- wuarchive.wustl.edu: pub/MSDOS_UPLOADS
- simtel20:
- <msdos.graphics>
- hv12 .zip Hiview 1.2. JPG/GIF/TGA viewer,req. 386, w/src
-
- I also posted it to alt.binaries.pictures.utilities
-
- Hiview is a freeware JPEG/GIF/TARGA viewer for MSDOS machines and requires
- a 386 or better processor, VCPI environment (it won't run under Windows or
- OS/2), and one of the following graphics cards:
-
- Ahead A/B
- Ati
- Chips&Tech
- Everex
- Genoa
- Oak
- Paradise
- Tseng 4000 (hicolor also, hence the name *hi*view)
- Tseng 3000
- Trident
- Video 7
-
- The sources are included with the archive and I strongly recommend comments,
- suggestions, code modifications, etc.
- Please let me know what hardware setup you have used hiview on.
-
- 7/22/92 version 1.2. jview.exe no longer exists. hiview can use all cards.
- this version is 10-20% faster than 1.1. It also eliminates the
- initialization delays on machines with no 387. There is a primitive
- slide show mode, and you can view pictures from the command line
- (-w and -W switches). There is a 486-optimized executable: hiview4.exe
- which is about 5% faster than it's 386 cousin on a 486. It will
- actually run on a 386, but slower. Dithering is now a global option
- (and faster). -T option will show how long it took for an image
- to display.
