news
--------------------------------------
- improved thumbnail generation
- some minor bugfixes
installation notes
---------------------------------------
MysticView is meant to be a stand-alone utility, and I really
recommend to install it in the SYS:Utilities drawer (or any
other path that is looked up by the Workbench).
in this case, MysticView can be easily configured to be the
default tool for pictures and preset files. you just have to
specify 'mysticview' instead of a clumsy path, such as
'work:applications/graphics/viewers/mysticview/mysticview'.
