- What is new in this package of 6 gifutilities
-
- GDIR now also shows the information of the GIFLITE header being present or not
- in a GIF file. In this way you don't need the program CHK4GLTE anymore.
- I've included CHK4GLTE anyway for those of you who only want to know whether
- a GIF file contains the GIFLITE header and need no further information about
- a GIF file.
-
- GIFPALET shows the palette on the screen that is used in the specified GIF file
- and lets you choose a background color for the GIF file by means of the mouse.
- So, actually the program GIFBGRND is now integrated in the program GIFPALET.
- To pick a color just click on the color you want. The top left pixel of the
- cursor is the HotSpot (the color under this pixel will be chosen).
- The mouse cursor moves a bit jumpy, this is because mouse drivers do not yet
- support 640 x 480 x 256 and up modes, so I had to use TurboPascal's
- GetImage and PutImage procedures in combination with the mouse, and this
- results in jumps of 8 pixels each time the cursor moves.
