-
- This program converts .PCX format graphics files into self-
- displaying executable programs that can be further compressed
- with the fabulous LZEXE.
-
- The image must be a 2 or 4 color CGA, 2 or 16 color EGA or VGA,
- or a 256 color MCGA (320 x 200) picture.
-
- Usage:
-
- pcxlife filename [alternate exe compressor]
-
-
- for example, pcxlife (on its own for help)
-
- or pcxlife test.pcx (convert test.pcx to test.exe)
-
- or pcxlife test (same thing, assumes .pcx)
-
- or pcxlife test pklite.exe (use pklite to
- compress .exe file
- instead of lzexe)
-
- The programs created by PCXLIFE check to see if the appropriate
- hardware is available before trying to display the image.
-
- Usage of an executable file compressor program, such as the
- public domain (free) program LZEXE, is highly recommended.
-
- The maximum size of the .PCX file must not be more than 64,000
- bytes.
-
- Images smaller than the screen will be centred.
