- Author: gcal@matinf.pcz.czest.pl (Grzegorz Calkowski)
- Uploader: gcal@matinf.pcz.czest.pl
- Type: util/boot
- Version 4.00
- Requires: Kickstart 3.0 or higher
-
- New release of the well-known bootpic program. The 4.00 version
- introduces many new features. Just take a look what the new SysPic can.
-
- SysPic 4.00 * - a star feature :-)
-
- o is small & VERY fast! (picture decompression routines written
- in optimized assembly)
-
- o shows IFF-ILBM pictures of any size and resolution,
- supports AGA modes (also HAM8)
-
- * has a flexible script-like language which allows you to display
- configurable text with hard/soft info, also with typewritter and
- shadow effects
-
- * can display a realtime digital clock on the displayed picture
-
- * can fade-in picture and fade-out it to Workbench (with selectable
- rate) - this works in asynchronous manner (i.e no delays) -
- mouse pointer is also faded
-
- * can play IFF-8SVX samples or Protracker modules with volume slide
- synchronized to fade-out
-
- o centers picture both horizontally & *vertically*
-
- o centers the mouse pointer when exits
-
- * has a very powerful random selector - an option assures that
- a picture won't show twice until all pictures are shown
-
- o forces Workbench to open behind the displayed picture so it can be
- closed after whole Workbench initialization, also works with
- the Directory Opus 5, the Workbench replacement
-
- o has no problems with MCP 'PubModes' feature
-
- * is iprefs-jump proof - sets overscan prefs before IPrefs will do it!
-
- o picture can be displayed in a desired mode or just promoted to
- specific monitor
-
- o optionally blanks the pointer sprite so you won't see it when the
- Workbench screen opens (it would look annoying)
-
- * picture is automatically closed when something goes wrong with
- booting - when an requester pops up on Workbench or so
-
- o detaches from shell in an intelligent way (i.e after loading
- the picture)
-
- * DOES NOT fragment the memory!!!
-
- o has been thoroughly tested by a team of betatesters
-
- o will be updated and supported in future
-
- * comes from Poland :))
