I'm happy to take credit where credit is due, but not in this case.
I am not the author of "uShow".  I'm not even the author's agent.  I
don't even know the guy!  Sorry that was not more clear.
The uShow topic came up because it was the only IFF viewer I had ever
found the did not hog the processor while displaing the picture.  This
includes Dpaint II.  At 996 bytes it's also the smallest, bar none.

uShow handles anything from a tiny brush up to an overscan picture.
If you wanted to add to uShow you could put in support for color
cycling chunks,  scrolling a larger-than-overscan picture, and (of
course) add a user interface.

uShow is available from the comp.binaries.amiga group.  Congrats to
The "Doc" for getting this working again.

Tip-of-the-day:  Dpaint II often hogs the processor even when inactive (at
least my version does).  To temprarily eliminate this, open a disk requester,
that part of Dpaint II works properly.
