There was no DOC-file with this when I got it, so the following text was
extracted from the program itself with "MakeEDable", then edited.
~~~~~~~~~
Usage: ShowANIM [-L] [-C] [+#] filename [filename ...]
-L# Non-continuous loop play # times
Default is 32000 loops
-C# Continuous loop play # times
-B# PingPong - forward/backwards loop play
(XOR ANIMs only)
+C Turn on color cycling
+# Force timing of # jiffies.
e.g. +6 for 10 frames per sec
+F# Extra timing in jiffies on first frame
+L# Extra timing in jiffies on last frame
Press [ESC] or [CTRL]+[C] to terminate...
It also looks like "ShowANIM" can now take multiple filenames as
arguments and play them in the requested sequence.
~~~~~~~~~
These are controls than can be used while viewing ANIMs or IFF-ILBM pictures:
ANIM file
~~~~~~~~~
DOWN ARROW - Pause
UP ARROW - Continue
RIGHT ARROW - Step Forward one Frame
LEFT ARROW - Restart ANIM
Function Keys - Speed Control
Press [ESC] or [CTRL]+[C] to EXIT
ILBM picture
~~~~~~~~~~~~
DOWN ARROW - Pause
UP ARROW - Continue
Press [ESC] or [CTRL]+[C] to EXIT
~~~~~~~~~
The following are references to the new icon-driven usages of "ShowANIM":
Project Icon ToolTypes:
LOOP=# Non-continuous loop play # times
CONTINUOUS=# Continuous loop play # times
PINGPONG=# Forward/backwards loop play # times
(XOR ANIMs only)
TIMING=# Force timing of # jiffies.
e.g. +6 for 10 frames per sec
FIRST=# Extra timing in jiffies on first frame
LAST=# Extra timing in jiffies on last frame
CYCLING=ON Turn on color cycling
Press [ESC] or [CTRL]+[C] to terminate...
~~~~~~~~~
I have included an icon (ANIM.info) which I made a while back and have
adapted to the new system. It expects "ShowANIM" to be in the C: directory
(Default Tool = C:ShowANIM) - but this can be changed with the WorkBench
menu item "INFO".
That seems to be about it... please let me know if I missed anything!
