Here are two quick programs I wrote:
(1) Grab an active Screen and write it to a file in IFF -IFFENCODE
(2) Decode arbitrary IFF files (e.g. see the format of) -IFFDUMP
The routine to grab the highest screen in IFFENCODE.C was taken
from a similar program Carolyn from amiga wrote and posted (same thing, but
it dumped the image to printer).
Since the programs require my library to compile, I've also included
the uuencoded binaries. Have Fun!
I tried to dump Dave Wecker's HAM pictures... the dump worked fine,
but every VIEWing program I have either refuses to open an interlace HAM
display, or runs out of memory because it keeps a second copy of the picture
around (96K pics!).
The decoder program is useful to get the general layout of IFF
files. It decodes any IFF file down to the CHUNK name and size. It will
print additional information only for CHUNK types it knows about...
admittedly I did not spend much time making the latter complete.
Tell me what ya' think.
