I am trying to use awrite to convert dos gif files to amiga dos gif files.
The program says the copying is done but on the amiga side I end up with a
112 size file regardless of the size of the original dos gif file. Of
course this file is not reconizable to Adpro. Any help or suggestions
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David
David,
I don't have any PC *.gif files on my machine at home but I have just
tried the transfer using a .BMP file and I think the problem is that you
have forgotten to use the /b extension to denote that this is a binary
file transfer.
If I use Awrite to copy the file C:\Windows\256color.bmp by typing the
following…
Awrite c:\windows\256color.bmp ram:256color.bmp
then I get a file which is smaller than the original and unrecognisable to
Adpro but if I use
Awrite c:\windows\256color.bmp ram:256color.bmp /b
the file is correct size and works OK in Adpro.
Hope that's what you need.
Tony
