Author:       Martin Weber
Uploader:     info ar-kleinert de
Type:         gfx/conv
Version:      0.31.1 (20.12.2006)
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1.0; ppc-morphos >= 1.4.5

 This is a quick port of "autotrace" (bitmap to SVG converter
 among other file formats) for MorphOS and AmigaOS/68k.

 Main changes: 

  - added smakefile & SCOPTIONS for SAS/C
  - added mos-makefile for GCC 2.95.x of MorphOS
  - added proper config.h for use with both
  - applied SAS/C patch to exception.c
  - added two test batch files and this readme
  - created a clean.bat
  - created a "bin" folder for the binaries

 Usage of the tool is explained in the README - for good results
 also have a look at the two test batch files.

 Enjoy.
