Viewpic v1.0 by Marko Schuster 1994 - Public Domain

ViewPic is a small Psion-Bitmap-*.PIC-Viewer for the Amiga.

It is a small hack, written in GFA-Basic, so it's not very fast.
But it's better than nothing of course :)

If a picture contains one Bitplane, it will be drawn in black/white,
if it contains two, the picture will be shown in black/grey/white.

Black, Grey and White are from the original WB2.0+-Colors.

Usage: viewpic <pic-file>

Note: Do not add spaces after the filename

Note: There's no error handling. If the picture won't fit on the
screen, the programm will abort cause the window-open-command.

Note: Pictures with more than 2 bitmaps aren't supported. If a 2nd
bitmap exists, it is always assumed to be the grey bitmap for the
first one. 

I've made it to view my large collection of converted b/g/w-PICs
on my Amiga, so I don't think, there will be future versions - at
least not in GFA-Basic. Maybe I (or someone else) could programme
a better and faster pic-viewer (and thereby a from/to iff-converter).

Bugs? Hm.. I hope I've fixed all now. I've got no troubles with viewing
my 180 .PIC-Files (and 70 .ICN-Files :) ) - so I think it should work o.k.

It was programmed & tested on my CDTV (1.3) and also tested on my
A4000/30 (3.0).

So have fun with it. :)
