- DESCRIPTION:
-
- DMGRAPH will store graphics into or extract graphics from DOOM WAD
- files, in GIF or PPM formats. Graphic format type is controlled
- by the filename suffix, or by using the '-T' option on the
- command line.
-
- Input graphics should have a resolution of 320x200 or less.
- To indicate transparent areas in the graphic, draw with
- Cyan (red:0, green:255, blue:255).
-
- Placement of the graphic can be adjusted with the '-i' option.
- When a graphic is extracted, it's current insertion point
- is stored in the GIF or PPM file. Negative insertion points,
- used on some graphics, indicate an absolute coordinate from the
- top-left of the screen.
-
- Some graphics are sensitive to size or placement. For example,
- TITLEPIC will generate a 'Bad V_DrawPatch' error if the
- insertion point isn't 0,0; STFGOD0 must be no larger
- than 31x31; etc.
-
- Please be sure to make a backup copy of the original DOOM WAD file.
