The two archives-- GraphicsBinaries.b.mSIN.tar.gz and GraphicsFrameworks.b.mSIN.tar.gz-- contain a set of frameworks and binaries that represent a [nearly] complete set of modern image processing tools from the network community. These tools include the full libraries, headers, and command-line tools from the following packages:
libpng v0_96 - reference implementation of PNG standard
libtiff 3.04b036 - Sam Leffler's reference TIFF implementation
SDSC imtool v3.00 - San Diego SuperComputing center's image tools
Also included is a tiff2png utility and a couple of EPS scripts that turn arrow and text bar into color cursors [under 3.3 apps only; OS 4.x has a different cursor handler in the windowserver].
All binaries were produced from source trees obtained from the various definitive releases of the aforementioned packages. Some modifications were required to achieve working binaries that support all three OpenStep/Mach architectures.
All binaries/frameworks are compiled for m68k, i386, and sparc architectures.
TO INSTALL
----------
Copy all of the .frameworks to /LocalLibrary/Frameworks -- due to a limitation in the mach platform's handling of frameworks, the frameworks must be installed in /LocalLibrary/Frameworks/.
Copy all of the binaries to your favorite binary directory.
