CompressOmatic 1.0 - Sun 03. March 1996 ======================================= WWW-JPEG tool May be you remember the NeXT app CompressionLab (Tak Hosoi), which was delivered with former NEXTSTEP releases. It never came as MAB, therefor we made a MAB version. Finally we found that it could be useful too supporting the WWW-jpeg format. You can open a TIFF image and compress it in several formats. In a second view you get the output result and an idea of the final quality. Some information about sizes and compression speed are shown in the information area. This way you can optimize to find the best size/quality ratio for WEB jpeg images. ftp SOURCE ========== We put it on the new US site and on peanuts, but again we don't know where it finally end up. (Check out the submission, Incoming directories) As soon as we know it we will list the URLs on our WWW-server. ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de ftp://next-ftp.peak.org THE PACKAGE =========== CompressOmatic.1.0.NIHS.b.tar.gz Quad FAT Package Architectures and NEXTSTEP Releases =================================== ALL (INTEL, MOTOROLA, HP and SUN).
