!ReadMe1st
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

It should work on the Risc PC and StrongARM, but you may need to be a 16 or 256 colour mode. Before you start, you should make an unarchived copy of the program, and install the toolbox modules supplied in a separate archive to !System with !SysMerge, or on a Risc PC by using the Configure program, if you do not already have them. There is also a separate Examples archive which you do not need, but gives you some examples of artwork produced in Sketch Pad. __| | \__ \ \ _` | _| -_)\ \ \ / _` | _| -_) ____/_| _|\__,_|_| \___| \_/\_/\__,_|_| \___| This program is SHAREWARE. This means that it is distributed in whole, for you to test and see if you wish to keep it. Feel free to redistribute it to friends etc, provided the archive remains intact, and no profit is made. This program has a two week trial period. After that, you must either REGISTER, or delete this program. To register, send �5 (UKP), along with your name, address, and if possible, an email address, to the address below. If you do not have an email address, you should enclose a SSAE. You will be put on the registration list, receive the registered version with the nag screen removed, and receive free updates will be available. You will also have a clear conscience, and know that you are supporting software development for RISC OS computers. This version supplied is complete in functionality, because I trust you to register. After all, it's only �5. If you do not have internet access, and you want an update, you can send me a SSAE and a disc, and I will return the latest version. _ | \o _ _ | _.o._ _ _ ._ |_/|_>(_ |(_||| | |(/_| I do not take any responsibility for any data corruption or other damage caused by the use or misuse of this program or the accompanying software. ��������������������������� � _ � � / _ ._ ._ o _ |_ _|_ � � \_(_)|_)\/| |(_|| | |_ � � | / _| � ��������������������������� !SketchPad and the Examples archive and contents, the accompanying Manual, and this file are Copyright � 1997 Jamie Shotton.

InterGif 4 ========== by Peter Hartley (K) All Rites Reversed Desktop front-end adapted from one by Iain Logan INTERGIF 4 is a program for making GIF images from 2-, 4-, 16- or 256-colour RiscOS sprite files, or from files produced with Iota Software's (commercial) animation program The Complete Animator. It can also convert from GIFs back to sprites. Get the latest version ---------------------- The latest version of InterGif, plus more help information and full source code, is always available on the World-Wide Web at the address http://www.ant.co.uk/~peter/software/intergif.htm It's the twenty-seventh of October, 1996, as I'm writing these words (happy birthday, Anne): if it's long after that that you're reading them, you might want to see if there's a later version now available. Distribution ------------ InterGif is NOT COPYRIGHTED and is NOT distributed under the GNU General Public Licence. For full information read the file !InterGif.Copying or go to the Web site. Features -------- o InterGif runs either on the desktop, or from the command line (so I can produce the GIFs for my own Web pages, from the sprites which constitute their source, using a make file!). o InterGif has options for the transparency and interleaving features of GIF89a. o InterGif can take a sprite file (or an Animator file) containing several frames, and produce from it an animated GIF which Netscape 2.0 or later, MSIE 3.0beta1 or later, or ANT Fresco 1.22 or later will render as animated if it's inlined in a Web page. o InterGif will reduce its input to a smaller number of colours (unless you explicitly tell it not to) if it can get away with it, i.e. if only that many of the colours are used anyway. o It will also compress only the rectangle which has changed on each frame, so if your animation has a complex but stationary background, the background will only get compressed once. Deviousness and cunning are employed to minimise the final size of the GIF: so much so that many animated GIFs I've found on the Web have ended up smaller when run through InterGif. o It can also make GIF images from Draw files if used in conjunction with AADraw (see end). Desktop use ----------- Pretty straightforward. Run !InterGif; drag your sprite file, Animator file, or GIF onto the left-hand bit of the window; set any options you want in the middle bit of the window; and save your GIF or sprite file out from the right-hand bit of the window. The options are: o Interlaced Produce an interlaced GIF: in other words, one which a Web browser can render quickly at a low resolution, filling in the details later as they arrive. o Looping animation Normally an animated GIF plays through once and stops. If you tick this option, you'll get an animated GIF that plays over and over again. This is a Netscape extension to the GIF format, but hopefully it will become a popular one -- both MSIE and Fresco now support it too. o One frame per file This splits up the input file into one output file per frame. Not, I admit, terribly useful, unless you need to import something into an application that expects lots of one-frame GIFs -- for instance, Sun's Java Animator applet. The names of the files are taken from the one you give, with any numeric part incremented as needed, so if you save a three-frame animation as frame001/gif, you also get frame002/gif and frame003/gif. o Keep source palette This disables InterGif's palette optimisations and ensures that the output has all the same colours, in the same order, as the input. o Frame delay This lets you set the frame rate, in centiseconds. The default is 8 centiseconds per frame (12.5 frames per second). o Transparency Choose None to get a wholly opaque GIF (no masking), Auto to get InterGif to use the sprites' masks (or the film's background colour); or you can specify a transparent pixel-value directly. (Hint: to find out what pixel-value a sprite pixel has, load the sprite into Paint, ensure its palette window is showing, click Menu over the pixel you want, and choose "Paint->Select colour". Command-line use ---------------- For this, you'll probably want to copy !InterGif.intergif into your library directory. At its simplest, you can just type intergif and the name of your sprite or film file, and it'll be converted. Here's a full list of the options: intergif [-i] [-loop] [-s ] [-split] [-same] [-d cs] [-t [pixel]] [-o outfile] infile -i Produce an interlaced GIF -loop Looping animation -s Produce a sprite rather than a GIF -split One frame per file -same Keep source palette -d cs Frame delay in centiseconds -t Use automatic transparency (default is no transparency) -t pixel Use specified pixel as transparent -o outfile Filename for the output (default is <infile>/gif) infile A RiscOS sprite, Complete Animator or GIF file See also -------- The InterGif page http://www.ant.co.uk/~peter/software/intergif.htm The AADraw page http://www.ant.co.uk/~peter/software/aadraw.htm The Complete Animator http://www.iota.co.uk/animator/ GIF89a specification http://asterix.seas.upenn.edu/~mayer/lzw_gif/gif89a.html Animated GIFs for other platforms http://www.n-vision.com/panda/gifanim/ peter@ant.co.uk 27th October 96 ============================================================================
