TITLE

## Xv for Amiga - Image display and manipulation program

VERSION

### 2.18 (X11 v.3.10a)

AUTHOR

John Bradley Terje Pedersen (terjepe@hstud6.cs.uit.no) ported it to Amiga. (Oterveien 55/9017 Tromsoe/Norway)

DESCRIPTION

This is an Amiga port of the X11 program Xv by John Bradley.

The xv program displays images in the GIF, JPEG, TIFF, PBM, PGM, PPM, X11 bitmap, Utah Raster Toolkit RLE, PDS/VICAR, Sun Rasterfile, BMP, PCX, IRIS RGB, XPM, Targa, PhotoCD, XWD, possibly PostScript, and PM formats on workstations and terminals running the X11 Window System. The documentation for XV is now distributed only as a PostScript file, as it has gotten enormous, and is no longer very well suited to the 'man' page format. Print a copy of the (100-ish page) manual found in docs/xvdocs.ps. If you are unable to get the manual to print on your printer, you may purchase a printed copy of the XV manual. Click on 'About XV' in the program to get further information.

NEW FEATURES

Added PNG support and a truckload of more fixes.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

Amigas with 68020+ and MUI 2.0+ preferably with 6mb+. Manipulation on 24bit images will require a lot more memory.
A big Workbench may also be useful. (640x400 is a minimum)

AVAILABILITY

An X11 version in source form is available on public.x.org and other X11 sites.

PRICE

Free! With a suggested contribution of $10 for the use of my X11 emulation (libX11) and my efforts at porting the program.
