SQZGIF v1.3 Copr. (c) 1988-89 Lawrence & Marvin Gozum
SQZGIF converts LARGE full screen GIF pictures such as 320x400x256 (Amiga),
640x400x256 (MACII) and 800x600x256 (SuperVGA) and "squeezes" it down to
320x200x256 in .BLD & .PLT format for:
* image processing/editing in VGACAD
* conversion to EGA in VGA2EGA
* printing in GIFDOT
* desktop publishing with GIFPUB
* reconversion to a smaller GIF in BLD2GIF
* bloading in BASIC or QuickBASIC
SQZGIF use both interpolation and color averaging methods to render
converted pictures as close as possible to the original image seen on
the originating machine without "noise" or patterns.
