Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of Library lcms 2.0 uploaded.
Date:	Sat, 18 Sep 2010 00:44:36 +0200

This is a port of Library lcms 2.0 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


  The little cms library intends to be a small-footprint, speed optimized color
  management engine in open source form written in C.
  Here some features taken from the information provided by the lcms home page
  http://www.littlecms.com:
    Basic features:
      Widely portable.
      Easy to use.
      Small, tight code. 
      Fast, optimized for speed.
      Handles a wide range pixel formats. 
      Implements ICC spec 4.2
      Profile to profile and multiprofile transforms.
      Supports all kind of profiles, including named color
      PostScript CSA and CRD generation

    Advanced features:
      Full multicolor support, including proof direction in more than 4 inks.
      Black preservation on CMYK->CMYK transforms.
      Gamut checking.
      Softproofing.
      Precalculated device link transforms with prelinearization step.
      Virtual Gray, RGB profiles.
      CIECAM02 appearance model.
      Can write profiles as well.
      Built-In profiles.
      Specialized abstract virtual profiles.
      Ink limiting.

  Please note that this is a library only for programmers.  If you do not
  understand all these, you do not need the port.  lcms is a CMM engine;
  it implements fast transforms between ICC (international color consortium)
  profiles.  lcms is NOT a file format or display library.  lcms knows nothing
  about how to display bitmaps (JPEG, TIFF, GIF or whatever).



  DJGPP specific changes.
  =======================


  The djgpp's CVS versions of snprintf and vsnprintf have been included and
  used to compile this package, making possible to compile it even with stock
  djdev203p2.  Hard coded paths to file names that are not 8.3 clean have also
  been modified so the sources can be compiled with SFN.  All DJGPP specific
  stuff is stored in the /djgpp subdir.

  To configure and compile the package you will have to install the following
  packages too:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/zlib123b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/tiff394b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/png143b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jpeg8bb.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
  or:
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/zlib123b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/tiff394b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/png143b.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jpeg8bb.zip
    ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
  Of course, you can always download newer versions of these ports if available.
  The files stored in /current have been compiled with djdev203 and the ones
  from /beta are compiled with djdev204 beta.  If you use djdev204 you will have
  to adjust your /dev/env/DJDIR/include/time.h.  _rdtsc declaration and
  definition both needs static as qualifier and the extern qualifier removed
  from the declaration.



  The port consists of the two packages that have been compiled using
  djdev203 and that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as
