- -----------------------------------------------------
-
- .Guide files in this Documentation require AmigaGuide !
-
- Install scripts require the standard Installer provided
- with WB3.0.
-
-
- The JFIF Datatype by Christoph Feck of Tower Systems
- includes a progress window and a Prefs option for
- different display modes. (It's also quite fast).
- Now licensed for commercial distribution by CHROMA.
-
- For this release of DataChrome, the datatypes are to
- be kept in the format of their original archive to satisfy
- license restrictions.
-
- Follow the JFIF documentation to install this datatype. It
- includes extra files in Libs, Codecs, Prefs etc. You WILL
- need to remove existing JPEG datatypes to use it.
-
- The GIF datatype on this disk is by Michael Zucchi. Permission
- to distribute this datatype with the package has been
- granted by the author.
-
- An install script has been provided, which will install
- PCX, Windows and GIF datatypes for you (but not JFIF).
-
-
-
- Latest Info
- -----------
-
- If you've the "Amiga.info" datatype installed, you could
- encounter problems when DataChrome intercepts "open file"
- system calls. Keep it in Storage until it's needed, or
- just de-activate DataChrome.
-
- Make sure you install BOTH parts of the Datatypes into
- Classes/ and Devs/ - some Datatypes also require extra
- (ie more than 2) files to work.
-
