Short: Replaces the MagicWB-Demon. Author: Allan Odgaard Uploader: Allan Odgaard Type: util/cli Version: 0.6 Architecture: m68k-amigaos This litle command was done because I had some problems with the MagicWB-Demon. o It sometimes crashed at startup (after doing Colorado, I found out that the fault was in the kickstart 8( - Solution; PatchOpenWB) o It could only set the middle colors (4-11 on 16 col. screens...) o You had to type in alot of numbers to set your colors (col n,r,g,b) o Couldn't load after WB was started. o Its size was 16832 bytes... I did Colorado which sets the full palette by writing a new Env:Sys/Palette.Prefs, and allocating the colors in the middle. The colors are taken from either a palette or picture file, and in case of a picture, it writes out a new Env:Sys/WBPattern.Prefs holding the picture as background with disabled remap. The beauty of all this is; If you try to scale'n'remap a picture in ImageFX, lock the first 8 colors to MWB and render it in 16 colors, you often get quite good results, then just write "Colorado ", and volla, youre WB looks superb! I did this command in june last year, and I was actually planning alot more, but never got time. Meanwhile alot of my friends commented my always nice looking WB pictures, and wanted a copy of Colorado, so I thought that somebody might wanted to take over the source or just the idea...
