User feedback
Please, let me know what you think about mgif.
What should be done differently?
What should be added?
What should be removed?
Have you found any bugs?
Anything else?
Quick preview
When a picture has been unpacked it will first be displayed using a quick
algorithm before the actual Floyd-Steinberg dithering starts.
If you don't like what you see you can abort the F-S at any time by
pressing a key.
In Falcon true colour mode the difference between the preview and the
dithered image is normally not that great, so you might not see when the
dithering is finished. But if you can't see it anyway, why wait? :-)
.FL files
Mgif tries to get the aspect ratio correct when it loads .fl:s created in
another resolution, but it's not very smart.
Don't try to read or write .FL:s in true colour mode.
Problems on the Falcon?
Sometimes there are problems when I run mgif on the Falcon after a change
to a lower graphics mode. I have not been able to find out why this happens,
but I'll try to fix it in v4.3.
Do you want an '030 version?
I have compiled mgif for the '030 and if you'd like that version, please
contact me (or compile it yourself). The speedup is not that great for most
functions, but if you use the log command a lot it might be useful. :-)
