Short: New Datatype for JPEG Images (46.4) Author: achimste@gmx.de (Achim Stegemann) Uploader: achimste gmx de (Achim Stegemann) Type: util/dtype Version: 46.4 Architecture: m68k-amigaos; ppc-warpup Requires minimum: * OS 3.5 Additionally recommended: * MUI 3.8 for the preferences. ########################################################## NOTE: This JPEG datatype is for OS 3.5/3.9 only !! Download util/dtype/JPEG-DT.lha under OS 3.0 or OS 3.1 !! ########################################################## With the help of the jpeg.datatype, your datatype sytem is able to read JPEG images. This datatype is freeware and can be used for any purpose ! ##### Why another datatype for JPEG images ? ##### Well there are many of them available on the Aminet, but this has two unbeatable advantages !! 1. It is very short, only about 8 kB !! Why ? Because it does not contain the JPEG de/encoder in the datatype itself. The datatype uses the jpeg.library from Paul Huxham for the JPEG de/encoding from the latest JPEG V6b release, so it is up-to-date. 2. It can write JPEG files when using the DTMW_RAW flag in the DTM_WRITE method !!
