[4 - Short Description]

Artview was mainly coded for the Devotion-Artpacks. It is part of the
Devotion Artpacks. Artview supports in this version ANSi, Binary-Ansi
(BIN), Textfiles, TGA-Pictures, PCX-Pictures and GIF-Pictures.

The textmode-viewer should work with all files, but the Grafixviewer
doesn't support truecolor yet. With the TGA-Viewer you can only view un-
compressed pictures, and the GIF-Viewer doesn't support interlaced pic-
tures yet. (is this to much??)

Artview uses the same routines for all Grafikmodes, so if you want to
have lowresolution modes like 320*200 or 640*400, you have to use a vesa
driver that support these modes, too like univbe53.

The usage of the program is very easy, i don't think that i must explain
it... :)) ... and for some hotkeys, try to press F1 in the mainprogram :)

To get some more information, what's possible with Artview, you should
also read ARTVIEW.HIS.

Artview was coded, using Borland Pascal 7 and Turbo Assembler 3.2 on a
486DX33, 16MB Ram, ET4000. -> It works fine on my machine :).
The Source-Code for this version contains more than 5000 lines code,
and including debugging-tools it needs 5MB on my Harddrive.

FORCE ACORN SUPPORT: This is for Acorn users with PC-Card, i've noticed
that there are some problems in textmode (maybe an
old softwaredriver?)
