[comp.sys.amiga] Looking For IFF

tron1@tronsbox.UUCP (HIM) (07/27/89)

Hello all net-folks, here is something I hope you can all help with...

I am looking to enhance a program I wrote a while back by putting an IFF
picture as the backdrop of the window I am using... Ideally , the routines
I need would ---

1) Tell me the X,Y sizes and # of colors of an IFF file specified
   by file handle.

2) accept the address of a suitably opened window (dimensioned by the return
   values of above) and set the pallet, and put the bitmap into it.

Thats all!

I worry about refreashing and borders and all.... but there really isnt any
reason to re-write the wheel is there?????


Please reply by net or email, I figure the code is short so if someone could
email it to me I would be *VERY* happy!!!!
