What the #@$% is SmartScale ?

SmartScale is a little program I wrote intended for graphic conversion
script files. It has 5 output modes. Con, env, ask loc & askl. You can even
use it just for graphics info. It will look at a picture or animation and
tell you the dimensions of that picture and output the information to the
con, env or local. It has internal ILBM support and will use datatypes for
other graphic types. If you use the ask modes you will be able to enter an X
& Y scale or %. The entered scale will be recalculated in order to keep the
aspect ratio of the picture or animation the same, if you choose to do so.
Ideal for script files. If no file argument is given when in "ask" or "con"
mode a file requestor will be automatically opened. It can be executed from
the WorkBench or with no parameters purely just to get information about the
selected graphics file.

When the ask modes are in use and the close gadget is activated a return
code of 5 (warn) will be given.

Minimum requirements:-
ROM 2.x 68000 CPU

Recommended:-
ROM 3.x emulated 68040 CPU


See the following archives on the aminet for example usage of SmartScale:-

You may also wish to update these script/progs with this new version of
