README.TXT and v 1.14 1996/09/24 Various picture format library for a multimedia function of 15:27:32 homy Exp $himage-OS/2 - Release 05 Sep 24 and 1996 Copyright (c) 1995, 1996 homy/newfs (8) This is what ?===========himage. It is the package added to the multimedia function of OS/2, and the following picture formats can be treated now in the multimedia function of OS/2. o JPEG (Read/Write) o MAKI (Read) o MAG (Read/Write) o PIC (Read) o Pi (Read) o PIC2 (Read/Write) o PNG (Read/Write) The following effect is expected by installing this package. o The file of the above-mentioned format comes to be seen by the image browser (ib.exe) included in the bonus pack of Warp. o The picture of the above-mentioned format is convertible for another format with the multimedia data conversion program (ffc.exe) of attachment in Warp. Picture of various formats It is convertible for JPEG, PIC2, and MAG. o The slide of the file of the above-mentioned format comes (time and effort [ Just for a moment ] necessity : after-mentioned) to be displayed by the light table folder. o Others The above-mentioned picture can be treated now with the application using the multimedia function of OS/2 (ib.exe and ffc.exe are the example). o multimedia of OS/2 If API is used, the program which treats the above-mentioned picture simply can be created (the clause of MMIO Functions of Multimedia Programming Reference -- reference: -- it has said TOOLKIT of OS/2). Guaranteeing [ no ]. = the ===== book package did not guarantee. There shall be no duty in which responsibility is taken on persons other than the author, a distribution person, and other users and an organization about any damage which a user will suffer owing to this package. In addition, although this package was changed, an alteration person shall set up guarantee regulation suitably. Operating condition = a ======= book package is freeware. Freely, you can use and reproduce it, and can distribute it and you can sell all or a part of this package. Precondition = a =======o OS/2 multimedia function should be installation ending. o When JPEG extension is used Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software is installation ending (ijgjpg6.zip). Installation method ================ those who use a former version ---------------------------- already -- Installation work can be simplified if the thing before Release02 is installed. Since multimedia-related application is terminated, it is contained in this archive. *.dll {Installation drive of MMOS2}:\MMOS2\DLL Upgrade will be an end, if it is alike and copies. At this time Please be sure to copy himgrt.dll. himgrt.dll is others. It is indispensable in order to perform DLL. After starting a system, it may be unable to copy, when LT reference has been created. At this time, once you reboot, please copy or install by the following usual method. This method cannot always be used in future upgrade. Please upgrade according to a document. The usual installation method ---------------------- This archive is developed to a suitable directory (it does not matter anywhere), and it is created by the developed directory. install.cmd is performed. In addition, since it seems that an installer may not be correctly performed where NPSWPS is started, it is the sake of a sense. Please perform an installer after ending NPSWPS. If an installer starts, since the picture format list which can be supported will come out, an unnecessary thing pushes the "Install" button, after removing a check. Although he asks whether CONFIG.SYS is rewritten on the way, since it is not changed, if NO is chosen, a mental health top will be good [ CONFIG.SYS ]. Please reboot, if an installer is completed normally. "LT Reference Fix Program" in the last of a list is a tool for a slide display being performed correctly, when the reference of the picture file which this package supports is created to a light table (in fact, a great thing does not become precocious by carrying out). Please install, if required. About this tool, it mentions later. All the files that developed after the installation end may eliminate. Restriction matter ======================== file output in this version Only JPEG, PIC2, and MAG correspond. Output quality which Independent JPEG Group defines by the JPEG output Encoding is performed at 75%. with PIC2 output, fixation, the picture title, and the comment are being fixed for the author name blank by "(the author -- unknown)" Moreover, compression form is being fixed to arithmetic compression (it seems named the low speed and the quantity compression format). 8 Bit It does not correspond to PIC2. It may correspond, if it seems that there is a request. since there are nothings picture Č of this format, there is no schedule of correspondence for now Only the picture of 1, 4, and 8 bit/Pixel is supported with the MAG output. Picture of 24 bit/Pixel It cannot output as a MAG file. The picture which this package supports is not copied to other restriction matter ================ light table folders, or a slide image is not created only by creating LT reference. Please use the below-mentioned tool etc. JPEG Picture of PIC2 It will fail, if it is going to change into GIF. Bonus pack GIF DLL It seems that conversion of the picture more than 256 colors cannot be performed. 24 bits Since it fails even if it is going to change BMP, it will be such specification. ib. If a picture is seen by exe, there is  which looks that there is no  than original somehow. That what carries out dithering for anything seems to be a cause. as [ have / a memory leak / somewhere in multimedia relation / ] -- it will increase by 4KB ib.exe (this package is not the cause.) having started ffc.exe and having only ended -- the amount of the memory used of a share domain Many mmioOpen It carries out. mmioClose It is what to increase only by carrying out. A future schedule = it enables it to set up a =========o input-and-output parameter. o Various kinds It corresponds to a TIFF file. an attached tool -- ======== -- the time of ========== installation When LT Reference Fix Program was chosen, it registered with the light table. JPEG The tool which enables the slide display of the reference of the picture of PIC is installed. The object of this tool is created by the desktop (suitably [ since there is no icon ] it pleases). Main part of a tool It is a command file named fixltref.cmd. It is an installation place if an installer is used. It becomes the same directory as the installation place of OS/2 multimedia. When not needed for mind, please copy to somewhere else in person. Usage -------- It is JPEG first. The light table containing the reference of a PIC file is created. Please create like references, such as the usual bit map file. example: 1. template folder -- opening -- "a light table" -- holding -- DE It drops on SUKUTOPPU. 2. Open the light table created for the time being. 3. Open the folder containing the picture which wants to create a slide. 4. Choose suitably the picture which created the slide (see " read me"). [ of : multimedia viewer which must not choose BMP FAI RU together at this time ] 5. It is a pop up menu on either of the selected objects. It takes out and "creation of LT reference" is chosen. 6. Light table previously created from displayed folder selection screen It chooses (it must be in a top page), and "comprehension" is pushed. (-.) It is a  when it is made a sentence... At this time, a slide is not created in a light table. Next, this light table (it is not a reference in a light table.) itself the thing of a folder -- it is -- it holds and drops on the "Fix LTReference" object which the installer created After a while, the slide of a picture file is created. Notes ------ It is the light table folder itself which is dropped on "Fix LT Reference." Nothing is carried out even if it drops the reference of contents. To a light table, you have to create a reference. It does not process to the substance of a picture file put on the light table. Slightly convenient method ------------------ The program object of a drops place needs to be visible to dropping a folder with drops "Fix LT Reference", and it is slightly inconvenient when a desktop is full of a window. Moreover, the folder in the state where it opened cannot be dropped. If the light table folder can be seen by saying, when is. Let's enable it to perform Fix LT Reference (performing, whenever it adds a picture also becomes easy). The setting notebook of a light table folder is opened and a "menu (M)" tab is chosen. The program object of "Fix LTReference" is dropped with the lower list currently written to be "action in a menu." Yes, the end. If it is in the state where the right button is opened from the menu which pushes and comes out if the rest is a folder in the state where it has closed, it is from the system menu of an upper left corner. Fix LT Reference can be performed. Furthermore, if the same setup also as the template of a "light table" is carried out, the above-mentioned menu item can be used by the folder created from the template after it. Exposure of a trick -------- Seemingly the light table is processing by seeing an extension somehow, and nothing is carried out even if it puts things other than the picture format installed simultaneously with the multimedia viewer of bmp, gif, tif, etc. on a light table (in spite of having enabled it to treat JPEG etc. as a multimedia function of OS/2). If it becomes, easy solution is the extension of the placed image file. Although it is changing into .bmp etc., it is in the picture of JPEG. There is no attaching an extension called .bmp on mental health well. When it comes out, it is doing this way and that and having noticed changed only the name of the reference itself, even when the title displayed in a light table folder remained as it was, it was that a slide is created. By the Ă reason, the script was created so that it was not necessary to change by handmade business one by one. What is being performed in the script by saying CMD.EXE The ren command is only executed. It does not process for preventing rewriting the extension of a picture file from the first freely only to a reference. A quite strange thing is done well. Although it came to be able to perform the slide of a JPEG file etc., it may be that there is an in fact more honest method. Please announce being aware or . Such this year Ⴀ ...--------------------- With the light table which applied this tool, it is the name of a picture file. If it changes by ALT+Button1 etc., a slide may not no longer be displayed. It should revive, if a tool is applied to a light table once again. Acknowledgement = === book package Independent JPEG Group created. A JPEG library (Release 6) and Mr. Tatsuro Sekiguchi created. A coerce package and Mr. Masahiro Ikemoto adjusted and he did distribution. It created using the source code of XV 3.10 a Japanese extension (*). It is thankful to the authors of these packages. (*) The information about XV Japanese extension is the following. It can receive on a Web page. http://www.airlab.cs.ritsumei.ac.jp/~ikeyan/xv-jp-extension/ Moreover, the reading preservation routine of PIC2 is Mr. Akira Yanagisawa. The PIC2 source code is origin. an author ==== opinion -- it asks and comes off -- obtaining -- I ask the picture file to obtain of below Moreover, please [ report of there having been a picture which cannot be read is also boiled freely and ]. homy/newfs(8)homy@newfs.to
