This is the README for GWAgent.1.0.N.b.tar.gz [Download] [Browse] [Up]

This is a package to be used with the Converters.pkg included in the
GraphicsWorkshop.tar, also at this archive. You should download this
other file first and install at least the Converters.pkg file.

GWAgent augments GraphicsWorkshop.app by allow for the use of 3.0's
Image filters. It will allow you to drag and drop any format picture
that can read by GraphicsWorkshop, assuming that the receiving
application will take the picture.

This should be installed in either /LocalLibrary/Services or 
~/Library/Services. It will create the folder GWAgent.service. After 
Installing, you'll need to log out and then log back in for the 
service to take effect. If it's working, you should see messages
printed to the console when you drag and drop an image.

If you've already downloaded the GraphicsWorkshop.tar file, you may
wish to do so again, since while I was creating this program, I found
a minor bug in the jpg converter. It caused pictures with less than < 256
to appear very dark. Ie, colors 0-15, where 15 should be full bright
were getting mapped to 0-15 or a 0-255 palatte, meaning 255 was full 
bright, and 15 is dim.
