Iff > exe
 

Back in the mists of time, I had a program which turned an IFF picture file into an executable.

IIRC it tacked some code to the pic for its own viewer.

Can anyone point me to it please, as I'm sure I got it from an Aminet CD but my searches of Aminet have been fruitless so far

TIA

Maybe Iff2Ex ?

Yes!

I think that is the one (I searched for "iff2exe" too)

Thanks for your help

Theres also another one on the LSD tools disks which can add music to the file being shown as well.. and if i remember correctly.. i believe there was a cruncher which could also turn a pic into a self displaying pic but at the moment its name escapes me

That could be very handy :)

crunch-o-matic or something along those lines. i think the name of the packer was.. pic to exe, music to exe and music+pic to exe.
lsd tools disc 31.

lsd tools 1.. iff>execute v0.9 and iff+mod>execute aswell

crunch-o-matic seems like an ideal prog for what I want, unfortunately it's severely crippled shareware :-\

found another app for you.. its called MOD-PRO.. wait..
it converts protracker mods into exe.. but it also does iff to exe
and it will also do protracker + iff to exe.. Theres no document to tell you how to use it though..

easy to use though..
as it has a gui.. the picture also has a timer.. so if you want the picture to be displayed for 10seconds type in 10.. if 30sec type 30 before saving.
and the produced files can be crunched/packed.

Andy, I’ve been looking for this software for ages, it’s called ‘Mod Processor’
I’ve checked all the LSD Utils disks and it’s not on there, don’t suppose you remember what utilities disk you found it on ? Point me in the direction ?

ok.. found it on my HDD..

iff>execute
iff+mod>execute
mod-pro <this is packed with powerpacker 4.
iffcr = iff cruncher
display-criff = display the above.

all in a lha amiga created archive in the zone NOW.. should be at the top.. uploader myname

Crunch-o-matic was the name of the cruncher which could create iff exe.. and it worked well..
only problem i find it only seems to work from df0:.. basic startup..

Wow!!! that's awesome :-) Thank you - I can't get into the zone (New user I guess) - Any other way of getting these bits to me ?

Got in the Zone ! - All sorted now, thanks for your help :-)
