- 1: Don't. XV 2.21 is big. I mean really big. If I were you I'd make sure I
- didn't have ftp capabilities before making requests like this. You're on
- Internet, so I don't see why you couldn't have ftp.
-
- 2: XView is NOT XV. XV is an image display utility, XView is a window
- manager system.
-
- 3: xloadimage is similar in functionality to XV, but XV reads more formats,
- allows all kinds of nifty colormap editing, scaling, and *saving* in a
- number of formats. XV's quantization is also much better than xloadimage's.
