Requires: OS 3.0

Visage is an IFF ILBM/JPeg/PNG/Datatypes viewer for the AmigaOS version 3.0
and higher. Main features include:

	Supports AA (AGA), ECS, RTG, PCHG, SHAM and CLUT. ;)

	Can display "deep" pictures in all formats on ECS Amigas, rendered
	in HAM, "normal" color or grayscale.

	Can scale "rendered" pictures to fit the screen.

	Extensive monitor support. Uses a BestModeID()-like function to
	find a suitable mode (if needed).

	Any native Amiga screen mode can be specified with text! No numbers
	needed. But you can use numbers, if you so wish. Or a requester.

	Simple promotion of pictures to any installed monitor. No hardcoded
	command line options for this. There is even a monitor requester.

	Several slideshow options, including a random mode, making Visage
	ideal for use with screen blankers as an external module.

	It's free!


News in version 39.12 (unofficially called VisageNG) include:

	GIF support removed (due to unreasonable (IMHO) licensing
	conditions by Unisys). This is why this release is called
	VisageNG. NG for "No GIF". ;/

	PNG support added. Based on libpng/zlib, so it could probably be a
	bit smaller (and maybe even faster), but it is there, and it works.
	;)

	JPEG reader rewritten to use the IJG sources directly. This means
	that progressive JPEGs are finally supported.

	CyberGraphX support added (bought myself a gfx-card ;).

	Improved pipe reading capabilities. Most internal readers should be
	able to read from pipes now (including Xpk compressed IFFs).

	Various minor improvements, and a couple of bugs and quirks fixed.

	Translations updated, done by ATO.
