 This is part 1/8 of the SuperView-II distribution, which consists of
 the following parts:
    SvII-1.lha      Main program, Tools, SuperView-Library
    SvII-2.lha      Documentation files
    SvII-3a.lha     SVObjects (JPEG, PNG, PCX, BMP, ILBM)
    SvII-3b.lha     SVObjects (other - OPTIONAL)

 All parts are (C) 1993-99 by Andreas R. Kleinert. All rights reserved.
 Parts only are allowed to be distributed together, not solely.
 Distribution and other legal conditions are to be obtained from the
 documentation as found in the second archive.
 To get the complete distribution, un-archive each of the single
 archives into the same directory:
    LHA x [archive].lha RAM:
 This will result in a directory called "SViewII" from where the
 installation script can be started. Note, that this won't work,
 if you did not un-archive all of the (non-OPTIONAL) archives...
**************************************************************************
 Other optional, separate archives are
    SvII-UX.lha     SVObjects for seldomly used Un*x file formats
    SvII-PPC.lha    Updates to PPC modules - for registered users, only
    SvII-WOS.lha    Updates to WOS modules - for registered users, only
    SvII-WIZ.lha    wizard.library for those who don't have it already

Program Description and Distribution Concept
--------------------------------------------
Successor of SuperView (NG); SViewII (evaluation version), a localized graphics
viewer, converter, editor and screen-grabber based on SuperView-Library,
with ARexx support, GUI, AmigaGuide online-help, Commodity-functionality
and many more features.
SHAREWARE (evaluation version).
Description of Features and Requirements
----------------------------------------
Nearly anything is managed by object-oriented external modules
for loading, saving (SVObjects), displaying (SVDrivers) and
processing (SVOperators) graphics - converting graphics and
"screen-grabbing" also is possible in a very comfortable way.
Only requires OS V2.04 and 68000, but also makes use of available
OS V2.1 and V3.x features and 680x0 module versions, as well
as optional powerUP (TM) powerPC module plugins.
Includes licensed SuperView-Library, which supports the following
file formats, periphal devices, display drivers and image processing
operators:
     ->>>> Total of 54 different graphic file formats               <<<<-
     ->>>> Total of  2 different periphal devices                   <<<<-
     ->>>> Total of 11 different graphic display systems (26 cards) <<<<-
     ->>>> Total of 34 different graphic operators                  <<<<-

                 Many formats with 24 Bit-Support.
                 Reads XPK- and PP20-packed data via Unpack.svobject.
                 Writes C-Sourcecode in chunky/RGB notation.
                 Together with external third party programs also the
                 following file formats seamlessly can be embedded:

 is supported in some way.
