- DT2IFF

- FORMAT
-
- DT2IFF INFILE/A,OUTPATH/A,ICON/K,DEFTOOL/K
-
-
- PURPOSE
-
- Converts any picture-datatype to standard IFF-ILBM format.
-
-
- SPECIFICATION
-
- Since Workbench 3.0 a lot of datatypes are supported. But not all
- programs can use these data. Thus DT2IFF converts a picture of
- any type to the standard IFF-ILBM format, so nearly all applications
- can use the pictures. If the old file has an extension (e.g. .GIF,
- .JPG), it will be replaced by .IFF, if there is no extension, a new
- one will be added.
- The original files WILL NOT be overridden!
-
-
- OPTIONS
-
- INFILE This is neccessary.
- Type in the file you want to convert.
- OUTPATH This is neccessary.
- Type in the path where the new picture shall be
- written to. (If you want to have it in the current
- directory you will have to use "")
- ICON This is not neccessary.
- Here you can enter an icon name (without .info at
- the end of the filename) in order to create an
- icon for the new file.
- DEFTOOL This is not neccessary.
- Here you can enter a new default tool for your icon.
- The old one will be overridden.
-
- No matter what kind of icon you select for your new picture (drawer,
- disk, or something else), the new icon will be a project icon.

- EXAMPLES
-
- 1> DT2IFF Pics:Mouse.GIF RAM:
- This will convert 'Mouse.GIF' to 'RAM:Mouse.IFF'
-
- 1> DT2IFF Pics:Mouse.JPG RAM: ICON=ENV:def_Picture
- This will convert 'Mouse.JPG' to 'RAM:Mouse.IFF'. In addition, a new
- icon 'RAM:Mouse.IFF.info' will be created.
-
- 1> DT2IFF Pics:Mouse.PCX RAM: ICON=ENV:def_Picture DEFTOOL=PPaint:PPaint
- Like example number 2, but the new default tool will be 'PPaint:PPaint'
