TINYVIEW DOCUMENTATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tinyview is a small IFF picture viewer capable of displaying IFF ILBM
pictures in all of the standard screen modes and resoloutions.
Tinyview has two modes of viewing pictures, either through a file selector
or as a default tool.
It was written in about ten minutes this morning when I was bored! So don't
expect it to be earth shattering!
System Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tinyview should work on ALL Amigas no matter what the specification, if it
doesn't work on yours then I'll be VERY surprised!
Using Tinyview with a file selector
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To use Tinyview with a file selector either click on the Tinyview icon or
execute Tinyview from a script (or startup-sequence).
Tinyview will try to use the ASL file requester, so ensure that you have the
ASL Library in your Libs directory, however if the ASL library is not
present then Tinyview will automatically use a standard Amiga requester.
Using Tinyview as the default tool
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To use Tinyview as a pictures default tool (to automatically display the
picture when the pictures icon is clicked) simply click once on the pictures
icon and select 'Information' from the Workbench Icon menu (Right Amiga I),
select the 'Default tool' box and enter 'Tinyview', press return and save
the information.
Tinyview will then load and display the image automatically.
Please note that when you enter the 'default tool' then the full pathname
must be specified if Tinyview is not present in the root directory.
i.e - Workbench:Graphics_utilities/Tinyview
Why Tinyview?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tinyview has been written as a simple, easy to use IFF viewer, either by
using a file requester or specifying it as the default tool, more
importantly it has been written to be as small as possible, Tinyview is only
7,664 bytes long (7K), in order to squeeze onto a disk.
DISCLAIMER
~~~~~~~~~~
Tinyview is supplied 'as is', I accept no responsibility for the performance
of Tinyview or and problems arising from it's use.
(However I can not envisage any circumstances where the use of Tinyview will
cause any problems).
