Summary: AREXX comm iff_display Message-ID: <451@ssbell.UUCP> Date: 31 Mar 89 15:53:03 GMT Reply-To: chris@ssbell.UUCP (0000-Chris Olson) Distribution: usa Organization: Sterling Software, FSG-IMD, Bellevue, NE. Lines: 33 [Die LineEater! Die!] I've just gotten involved in a Cable TV project for the display of weather maps. The weather maps will be capture with a frame-grabber under C-program control, shipped over to the Cable station via fast modem, and displayed on Cable. So far, so good. I need to automate all of this. AREXX can do the job nicely. All I need is: A) A comm program which can be controlled via AREXX. B) An iff display program which can be controlled via AREXX and has a smooth change between pictures. This is all going to be run on two Amiga 500's. And be a whole lot cheaper than you think... If you have any information on the above (and the location of a good iff-picture grabber routine...) I would be extremely grateful.
