* TOTAL OVERHAUL OF ALL EEGA and SVGA *.CFG FILES.
Update 4.0 * HP LASER/compatible support
- variable DPI settings 75,150,200,300 (even 400 DPI!)
- variable resizing
* BUGFIX: A black line appeared on the left margin of
any dithered image due to the nature of the dithering
algorithm that works in areas. This has been modified
by internally and transparently adjusting the image
width.
* GVGA (Genoa 6300/6300) EEGA/SVGA support!
* BMP/Windows 3.0 256-color input file support!
Update 3.2 * BUGFIX: Pressing ESC during printing or dithering kept
a file open resulting an an error with no message (ie.,
a small square in the middle); this has been fixed.
* BUGFIX: Epson an IBM drivers were exchanged resulting in
selecting the wrong driver.
* USER-specifed linefeeds in n/216 increments in both Epson
and IBM formats for to avoid those white lines on certain
Epson/IBM(Proprinter)-compatible printers.
Update 3.1 * BUGFIX: Hardcoded SVGA support for Tseng 4000 chip was
missing; this has been corrected.
* BUGFIX: Hardcoded SVGA support for Oak chip was missing;
this has been corrected.
Update 3.0 * GIF 89a support. First GIF 87a image is extracted.
* 1024x768x16 SVGA support !!!
* User modes structures are now consistent with all
our .CFG files (eg., MVGAVU, GIFHEX, VGACAD, etc ...)
* BUGFIX: User modes expected GIFDOT.CFG files; this has
been corrected.
* TEMP files enhanced with additional GIFHEX color field.
* Ending "\" pathname specification has been removed.
* Bugfix: Negative disk space errors for user with
MASSIVE hard disks has been fixed.
Update 2.1 * GIFPUB & GIFDOT combined into ONE stand-alone program !
* Fully-optimized PCX RLE compression (about 50% better
than previous GIFPUB releases.
* BUGFIX: Overwritten PCX files were not deleted resulting
in large PCX files; this has been corrected.
* Integrated with VGACAD v2.0 chained environment.
(when released)
Update 2.0 * Full utililization of SVGA images (to 2KBx2KBx256)
* PCX v5.0 support (to 2KBx2KBx256)
* Histogram-equalization; new image processing function
for global grey pixel redistribution
- Flat (linear)
- Sine (Pseudo-Gaussian)
- BiModal (Dual, Overlapping Sine Curves)
- TriModal (Triple, Overlapping Sine Curves)
- Lite Skew (linear w/ positive skew)
- Dark Skew (linear w/ negative skew)
* New error-distributed algorithm using modified Floyd-
Steinberg matrix with "Stucki" values
* User-definable dither density
* User-definable EEGA/SVGA video modes
* Enhanced Brightness and Contrast-Stretching algorithm;
precise grey scale adjustment; reorganized around
Histogram Analysis for better feedback and analysis
* Extended grey scale parsing algorithm - 256 greys mapped
instead of 64 for enhanced detail
* Fast 256-color palette read/write algorithm
* Bugfix: Selection of files with "**MORE**" corrected
