The XPM format is common in the Unix world. Copyright, Distribution and Disclamer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The xpm.datatype is ©1999,2000 by Sebastian Bauer. It is freeware. Feel free to spreat it, as long as all files are included and in an unchanged form. You are not allowed to make profit from its distribution! In no way the author can be made responible for any damage created by the program. Use it at your own risk! How to use install ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Simply copy the xpm.datatype file to SYS:Classes/DataTypes and the XPM file to DEVS:Datatypes. Then execute the following command: adddatatypes refresh. You also can use the included Installer Script to install it. Note that the datatype only works if you have picture.datatype version 43 or higher installed! Future ~~~~~~ - implement DTM_Write - fix all bugs History ~~~~~~~ Version 43.2 (27.03.00) - now uses AsyncIO (improves loading time a little bit) Versiom 43.1 (09.01.00) - now uses a smaller depth if possible - fixed problems with 16 bit per gun (?) xpm files (reported by Francis Labrie) Version 43.0 (27.12.99) - initial release How can you reach me? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The xpm.datatype probably has many bugs so send bug reports to sebauer@t-online.de or Sebastian.Bauer@in.stud.tu-ilmenau.de Address: Sebastian Bauer Neustädter Str. 50 07768 Kahla Visit my homepage at http://home.t-online.de/home/sebauer/ (german version) http://home.t-online.de/home/sebauer/english.html (english version) Here you can find the latest version of the xpm.datatype but also other things for Amiga, for example SimpleFind and SimplePac. __ / / __ / / Only Amiga makes it possible... \ \/ / \__/
