- INTRODUCTION
- This is a little Arexx Script that enable you to convert
- GIF/TARGA/PPM/JPEG/ILBM/PCX Files to JPEG Format with the desired
- compression quality. It's a bit stupid but it can help.

- WHAT DO YOU NEED (not in the archive)
- You need the JPEG package (JPEGVxBin.lha on Aminet).
- PCXTOPPM and ILBMTOPPM archives for special formats.

- INSTALLATION
- Copy the Arexx script to DOPUS5:Arexx.
- Create a button which call the script like :
- AREXX : Pic2jpeg.dopus5 {Qp} <scale> <path for tmp file> <cjpeg options>
- the scale, path and option arguments are optional. If you don't put it,
- the tmp files will be in the same dir that the pictures (they will be delete
- after use). If you don't use the path option but the cjpeg option, put ""
- for the path. cjpeg optins are like : -grayscale, etc.
- If you want to use the DJpeg Scale option, write SCALE in the command
- line, if not write NOSCALE or what you want.
- Put the "Run Asynchronously" Flag.
