	o  Windows BMP files (4, 8 and 24 bit, uncompressed)

and writing the following formats:

	o  GIF'87
	o  Windows BMP files (8 and 24 bit, uncompressed)


ColorView will work with:
	o  4 bit, 16 color standard VGA boards (poor color reproduction)
	o  8 bit, 256 color display boards
	o  15 bit, 32768 color display boards
	o  24 bit color display boards
	o  Microsoft Windows 3.0 and 3.10
	o  2 MB or more of physical memory
	o  80286, 80386-SX, 80386, 80486 processors

ColorView provides:

	o  Gamma correction,
	o  Hue,
	o  Saturation, and

Two versions of ColorView are available: ColorView '286 and ColorView '386.
The '386 version of ColorView uses Intel 80386 (and higher) instruction set
to optimize decompression. As the result, it is twice as fast as the
ColorView '286 in displaying JPEG images.

	  PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A 80386-DX or 80386-SX CPU
