I compiled the xloadimage 2.0 relase, and attempted to display several G3 images, but got a tremendous stream of errors, ending in a core dump (because of a %s used w/o a string argument. . .) Which . . . makes me feel that it was not used, tested, or whatever. 1. Does the previous release robustly support G3? 2. Does anyone have a G4 support algorithm? 3. Have other people used the G3 display option? All replies appreciated; the G4 (tiled) option would be especially interesting. Also, Where can I find a concise definition of G3/4 compression/decompression algorithms? TX - Joe (JoJo, back from the dead)

If you happen to have a couple of small ones please send them to me and so that future releases won't have similar problems. jim frost saber software jimf@saber.com
