ART-Pro is a new gfx-converter for coders. It's currently able to
convert IFF-Brushes in a comfortable manner into different formats,

Some awesome features of ART-Pro 0.641:

    * comfortable GUI:
        * all functions driven by gadgets or keyboard equivalents
        * no menus on screens with weird resolutions and colors
        * lots of options and settings for your individual taste
        * comfortable brush cutting controlled on a seperate screen

    * highly flexible source code generation

    * save load/savepath after Exit and load it at the Start

    * image converting:
        * handles IFF to RAW as well as RAW to IFF
        * supports interleaved blitter formats
        * outputs as source / binary / linkobjekt
        * includes additional blitter words for shifted blitting
        * automatically saves the colors associated with an image

    * extensive sprite support:
        * handles sprites in either 4 or 16 colors
        * handles sprites being 16 / 32 / 64 pixels wide
        * outputs as source / binary / linkobjekt
        * allows you to cut several sprites in a single go
        * automatically calculates sprites' control words
           according to their screen positions

    * color functions:
        * supports LoadRGB / RAW / copperlist formats
        * generates AGA copperlists
        * handles 4 and 32 bit color depths for LoadRGB
        * outputs as IFF, source, binary or linkobjekt

    * masking functions:
        * generates brush masks for either interleaved
          or noninterleaved blitting
        * supports specific mask colors
