The Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: Includes and Autodocs gives a good, indepth description of several IFF formats, including graphics IFF. Also, the Advanced System Programmer's Guide from Abacus books has a whole chapter devoted to IFF. If you don't feel like buying either of these books, then believe it or not, there is an Amiga BASIC program on the Extras disk that loads IFF. The program is well documented. I used it about a year ago to write a C program to load and display IFF. It's a good start for hacking, but I strongly recommend the two above-mentioned books. Please let me know if this helps. -Ralph PS: For future reference, this probably should've been posted in comp.sys.amiga
