Welcome to GIFology RELEASE 1.0 (for OS 3.x)
============================================
This application is to demonstrate how to use the GIFDecode class.
By adding this class library to your application, you will be able to read
a GIF file (version 87a or 89a). To do so:
(A) IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE SOURCE CODE:
1) copy the Makefile.preamble to your application directory.
2) copy the GifDecode.h and the GifDecode.o file to
the directory of your application.
(B) IF YOU HAVE THE SOURCE CODE (See the file register to get the source code):
1) copy the GifDecode.h and GifDecode.m file to the directory
of your application.
2) add the GifDecode.m class into your project, i.e. launch
the Project Builder, by clicking twice on your PB.project
icon from the workspace then click twice on the Classes row
in the browse). Select the GifDecode.m class, by clicking on that
choice once. Click on the "ok" button. Save the PB.project file.
(A) OR (B):
3) insert the following line:
#import "GifDecode.h"
into the program which is going to use a GIF file.
I urge users to read the spec.rtf file to understand how to call
the GifDecode class library. Furthermore, users can find an example on how
to use that library by "dissecting" the demo method in the Gif.m source code.
I also urge users to be a registred user so that you can fully enjoy
this software.
So long!
