- Nepenthe 1.0a
- by Grant Guenther
-
- •What is Nepenthe?
-
- Well, i noticed that GraphicsConverter would choke on some formats (namely
- by inverting the red and blue intensities for each color). I ran to a
- dead end while trying to convert some .CLP files i had--the only program
- (both IBM and Macintosh) that i could find that could correctly handle them
- was GraphicsConverter--however, all my reds were blue, and all my blues were
- red, and so forth. Note the simply inverting the colors doesn't help--
- you see, the green intensity was alright, and inversing the color could
- change that intensities
-
- •What can i use it for?
-
- Well...huh...it's a very quick and dirty, downright simple program...all it
- does is swap blue and red intensities of the picture. It will only accept
- 8bit-or-less PICTure files (for some reason it gags on anything higher than
- 8bit...don't worry, i'm looking into it). So if you've had problems like
- this with GraphicsConverter (or any other program), here's your solution.
- Also, if you're an artsy person who wants image manipulation...here's an
- idea.
-
- •How much does it cost?
-
- Are you kidding me? it's FREE. all i ask is that you somehow contact me
- if you use this program. (see below)
-
- •What bugs/undocumented features are in it?
-
- Nothing much...only 8bit-or-less PICTures are usable...Also, i had hoped to
- create an icon for the file so you can identify what file it is from the
- DeskTop.
-
- It has been throughly tested on my Mac LC ][...
-
- •what else have you written?
-
- too many to count. the notable ones are:
-
- *Cloaker: takes and manipulates data and resources forks in a file
- *The Bridge: A superior form of Hax and FileLift
- *many, many more...
-
- •How can i contact you?

- e-mail's the best. my e-mail address is:
