- McFilter 2.0 -- GIF and JPEG Image Filtering Service w/ Gamma Correction
- (Available NOW)
-
- MADISON, AL - March 1, 1994 - A new version of McFilter is
- available on the NEXTSTEP archives. McFilter 2.0 adds a JPEG (JFIF)
- image filtering service to the previous GIF filtering capabilities.
-
- Source code is provided, as well as fat binaries for NEXTSTEP 3.1/3.2.
- (3.0 binaries were not included since I don't have access to any
- machines running 3.0.) A detailed README file is included to answer
- most installation questions. Please note that services conflicts
- will need to be resolved if you have ImageViewer.app 0.9i installed.
-
- McFilter provides a Preferences.app bundle for controlling the gamma
- correction factor during conversion. Gamma correction can significantly
- improve the color saturation/contrast of converted images under
- NEXTSTEP. (See the Using Photo Album -> Preferences explanation in
- the help for /NextDeveloper/Demos/PhotoAlbum.app for an explanation
- of why gamma correction is even necessary.)
-
- McFilter can be found on the cs.orst.edu and ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de
- archive sites. McFilter is freeware.
