Short: SViewII V8.02 (xx.8.98) - Part 1/7
Type: gfx/misc
Uploader: Andreas_Kleinert@t-online.de
Author: Andreas R. Kleinert
**************************************************************************
This is part 1/7 of the SuperView-II distribution, which consists of
the following parts:
SvII-1.lha Main program, Tools, SuperView-Library
SvII-2.lha Documentation files
SvII-3.lha SVDrivers
SvII-4.lha SVOperators
SvII-5.lha SQ's SVOperators
SvII-6.lha SVObjects
SvII-7.lha 68030 optimized modules (SVObjects/Drivers/Operators)
All parts are (C) 1993-98 by Andreas R. Kleinert. All rights reserved.
Parts only are allowed to be distributed together, not solely.
Distribution and other legal conditions are to be obtained from the
documentation as found in the second archive.
To get the complete distribution, un-archive each of the single
archives into the same directory:
LHA x [archive].lha RAM:
This will result in a directory called "SViewII" from where the
installation script can be started. Note, that this won't work,
if you did not un-archive all of the archives...
**************************************************************************
Optional, separate archives are
SvII-UX.lha SVObjects for seldomly used Un*x file formats
SvII-PPC.lha Updates to PPC modules - for registered users, only
SvII-WIZ.lha wizard.library for those who don't have it already
**************************************************************************
Program Description and Distribution Concept
--------------------------------------------
Successor of SuperView (NG); SViewII (evaluation version), a localized graphics
viewer, converter, editor and screen-grabber based on SuperView-Library,
with ARexx support, GUI, AmigaGuide online-help, Commodity-functionality
and many more features.
SHAREWARE (evaluation version).
Description of Features and Requirements
----------------------------------------
Nearly anything is managed by object-oriented external modules
for loading, saving (SVObjects), displaying (SVDrivers) and
processing (SVOperators) graphics - converting graphics and
"screen-grabbing" also is possible in a very comfortable way.
Only requires OS V2.04 and 68000, but also makes use of available
OS V2.1 and V3.x features and 680x0 module versions, as well
as optional powerUP (TM) powerPC module plugins.
Includes licensed SuperView-Library, which supports the following
file formats, periphal devices, display drivers and image processing
operators:
->>>> Total of 53 different graphic file formats <<<<-
->>>> Total of 2 different periphal devices <<<<-
->>>> Total of 10 different graphic display systems (22 cards) <<<<-
->>>> Total of 32 different graphic operators <<<<-
SVObjects: - IFF-ACBM - Windows,OS/2 BMP - PNM (PBM,PGM,PPM)
- IFF-ILBM - JPEG (JFIF v6) - IMG (GEM Graphics)
- IFF-DEEP - PhotoCD - WPG (WP Bitmaps)
- IFF-FAXX - TIFF - MacPaint MAC
- IFF-PBM - PCX - EPS (Header/PS)
- IFF-RGB8 - Atari Degas - C64 (Koala, Doodle)
- IFF-YUVN - Windows Icon - CDR-Previews

as well as all OS3-Datatypes
and 24 Bit DataTypes (picture.datatype V43).
Many formats with 24 Bit-Support.
Reads XPK- and PP20-packed data via Unpack.svobject.
Writes C-Sourcecode in chunky/RGB notation.
Together with external third party programs also the
following file formats seamlessly can be embedded:
