ColorView for Windows
Copyright (c) 1992 Millennium Technologies Corporation
Version 0.95
ColorView is a color image viewer designed for Microsoft Windows. In this,
preliminary version, ColorView supports reading the following formats:
o JPEG (JFIF subset)
o GIF'87 (only simple images)
o Windows BMP files (4, 8 and 24 bit, uncompressed)
and writing the following formats:
o GIF'87
o Windows BMP files (8 and 24 bit, uncompressed)
ColorView will work with:
o 4 bit, 16 color standard VGA boards (poor color reproduction)
o 8 bit, 256 color display boards
o 15 bit, 32768 color display boards
o 24 bit color display boards
o Microsoft Windows 3.0 and 3.10
o 4 MB or more of physical memory.
ColorView provides:

Two versions of ColorView are available: ColorView and ColorView '386.

to optimize decompression. As the result, it is twice as fast as the plain,
vanilla ColorView in displaying JPEG images.
