What the #@$% is SmartScale ?

SmartScale is a little program i wrote intended for picture conversion script
files. It has 3 output modes. Con, env & ask. You can even use it just for
ILBM info. It will look at a picture or animation and tell you the dimensions
of that picture and output the information to the con or env.
If you enter x & y scale args, the args will be recalculated & output'd in
order to keep the aspect ratio of the picture or animation the same.
You can also scale using the percentage argument instead of X & Y coordinates.
If you use the ask mode you will be asked to enter an X & Y scale or %. 
Ideal for script files.

See the following archives on the aminet for example usage of SmartScale:-
Anim2mpegS.lha, Anim2mpegB.lha, Anim2gif.lha, Anim2qt.lha & Mp2anim.lha

You may also wish to update these script/progs with this new version of
SmartScale.





 Usage:
 SmartScale [con/env/ask] [file name] [x scale] [y scale]
                           or
 SmartScale [con/env/ask] [file name] [%] [1-100]
 eg. SmartScale env pic.iff 640 200
                  or
     SmartScale con pic.iff % 50

 ENV outputs:
 XIN & YIN input size of picture
 DIN depth of picture
 XOUT & YOUT calculated size of picture within the [X,Y,% scale] args
             while still maintaining the correct aspect ratio.
