DESCRIPTION

     A set of loader and saver modules for the famous ImageFX-EGS and
     ImageFX image processing packages.

     The loader is designed for very fast speed and written in pure
     Assembler code. It also allows loading of many new file formats.

     Supported formats for loading:

     1) IFF-ILBM (1 to 24Bit incl. HAM6/HAM8)
     2) PPM/PGM/PBM (P1&P4 b&w, P5 grey, P6 color)
     3) QRT (also known as dump format by PD raytracers as POV-Ray)
     4) Targa
     5) PCX
     6) BMP (uncompressed)
     7) TIF (packbit-compr./uncompr.)
     8) EGS7.x window icons
     9) DEEP
     10) YUV
     11) VLAB raw
     12) RGB
     13) HHsYUVSq sequence format
     14) IFF-PBM (DPII)
     15) ACBM
     16) FBM
     17) Sun raster (uncompressed)
     18) MacPaint (b&w compressed 1Bit format; datafork only)
     19) HHsXRL formats
     20) PhotoCD (Base format 768x512 or 512x768 (portrait))

     The additional DataType support extends this list by many
     formats; DataTypes can e.g. be found on Aminet in util/DType.

     The speed and format support is the same, so you can try out if you

     After you have paid the shareware fee you will receive a special
     personal keyfile (together with the latest version). Once registered, you
