LEGAL STUFF
This is a freeware production. You can use it, spread it, give it
but you can't sell it. The author is not responsible for problems
that can happen by using this program. Use it at your own risk.
INTRODUCTION
This is a little Arexx Script that enable you to convert
GIF/TARGA/PPM/JPEG/ILBM/PCX Files to JPEG Format with the desired
compression quality. It's a bit stupid but it can help.
Pictures must have extensions like .GIF, .IFF, .ILBM, .JPG, etc.
Look at the script for more informations.
WHAT DO YOU NEED (not in the archive)
You need the JPEG package (JPEGVxBin.lha on Aminet).
PCXTOPPM and ILBMTOPPM archives for special formats.
INSTALLATION
Copy the Arexx script to DOPUS5:Arexx.
Create a button which call the script like :
AREXX : Pic2jpeg.dopus5 {Qp} <scale> <path for tmp file> <cjpeg options>
the scale, path and option arguments are optional. If you don't put it,
the tmp files will be in the same dir that the pictures (they will be delete
after use). If you don't use the path option but the cjpeg option, put ""
for the path. cjpeg optins are like : -grayscale, etc.
If you want to use the DJpeg Scale option, write SCALE in the command
line, if not write NOSCALE or what you want.
Put the "Run Asynchronously" Flag.
TO DO
Add support for other pictures format.
Localisation.

Contact me for any problem.
You can modify the script for your personal usage but you can't spread it
