[Show comments] [Show snapshots] [Show videos] [Show content] [Replace file] This little utility allows you to view raw Sinclair QL screen files on Amiga window, and save them as ILBM images. Both MODE 4 and MODE 8 screens are supported. Only QL standart 32768 bytes long files are recognized and shown. On the test files included in the archive, comments are set for each picture, suggesting the mode for accurate viewing. The color palette is taken from Sinclair QL screenshot, and believed to be as much accurate as possible. QLView saves the shown picture in ILBM non compressed format, 24668 bytes for MODE 8 pictures and 49244 bytes for MODE 4 pictures,both with Depth 3 (8 Color Pallete). Currently the program omits the flash bits, so some images doesn't look exactly the same as on real or emulated QL. Gwendoline_screen for example have some flashing snowflakes, which are standing still on the QLView window. Usage: From CLI> QLView [QLScreen] [MODE=4/8] , where QLScreen is the file to be shown and MODE is the preffered mode (Default is 8). Both arguments are not obligatory. Examples: > QLView Renault5_screen 4 , will show Renault5_screen in MODE 4. > QLView Girl_screen MODE=4 , will show Girl_screen in MODE 4. > QLView GChrome_screen , will show GChrome_screen in MODE 8. > QLView - Launches the program. Some help text will appear. > QLView ? - Shows Usage info. > QLView MODE=4 - Launches the program in MODE 4.Help text appears. From Workbench -> DoubleClick on the program icon. On the program execution -> There is a menu accessable on right mouse click, which is normally hidden for viewing purposes. "Open File" menu item or RightAmiga+O or O key - Opens FileRequester which can select QL screen for load. QLView will render it immediately, if it is really a QL MODE 4 or MODE 8 picture. "Save as IFF" menu item or RightAmiga+S or S key -Opens FileRequester for choosing filename of the ILBM format image, and saves the current display with this name. If the filename already exist a requester will appear, giving the chance to overwrite the file. "Colors" menu item or RightAmiga+W or W key - Switches the palette between the original Colors and different sets. Total eight colorsets are available,simulating different monitor shades - Black&White (Grey), Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Magenta, Cyan and Color (default palette).The selected palette is taken into account during saving. "Mode" menu item or RightAmiga+C or C key - Switches between MODE 4 and MODE 8. "Quit" menu item or RightAmiga+Q or Esc key - Quits the program. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bug - saved .IFF picture is not corect.
