Subject: Jade 1.2
Multiple threaded execution and a proprietary virtual memory scheme
form the foundation for Jade 1.2, one of the most versatile JPEG
viewers available for the Macintosh. By utilizing these unique
features, Jade can view JPEGs with amazing speed while maintaining
a small memory footprint.
Unlike most other Mac JPEG viewers, Jade uses the cross platform JPEG
library supplied by the Independent JPEG Group and as a consequence is
much more tolerant of corrupted JPEGs. In addition, it allows Jade to
view images at full size and allows Jade to support the latest JPEG
features (like Progressive JPEG encoding).
To top it off, Jade goes beyond traditional image viewers, allowing
users to route images to multiple folders or applications on the fly.
Other features of Jade include:
-- Support for PICT, GIFf, BMP, and TIFF image formats
-- Slideshow
-- Indexing
new in 1.2:
-- TIFF support
-- Ability to change Finder labels
-- Jade now remembers the size and position of the Filing window
-- Virtual memory scheme now supports asynchronous writes
-- Many other features, performance improvements, and bug fixes
Jade requires 68020 (or higher) or PowerPC, Thread Manager or
system 7.5 (or later) and is Freeware.
