DEPACK IFF v1.7
---------------------------------
© 1993 WRITTEN AND COPYRIGHTED BY
MARCIN 'MR SOFT' ORLOWSKI
1. This program lets you depack any IFF ILBM file with BODY chunk
crunched by standard ByteRun algorithm which is always used by all
Amiga graphics programs (like DPaint, Brilliance, ADPro, Real) while
saving image, brushes and so on. I decided to code this, because
ByteRun is not so effective as XPK, LhA (but not always!). If you
want to repack images, you will reach the best results only when you
pack pure image data, and this is why this program was born and
should be useful for all the people wanting save own disk space, eg. BBS
SYSOPs (more images and less bytes!).
NOTE: DepackIFF requires OS2.0 or greater to run!
2. ShellArguments:
---------------
SOURCE - filename of image you want to depack
DEST - DESTination file name (file the image will be save to).
If no given DEST file name SOURCE file will be overwritten
without any question!
INFO - shows image's size, depth and mask information.
ANNO - displays ANNO chunk contents (it's mainly image author's
notes. If no ANNO chunk available nothing will be shown).
NOMASK - removes image mask (like stentils) while depacking.
(Not implemented yet).
QUIET - no messages will be generated (like >NIL:)
HELP - shows little information.
Enjoy!
