   ,    
   ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++    
      
   From: Heiko.NitzscheDESPAM@DESPAMgmx.de   
      
   I have finished a new release of most GBM modules with several enhancements.   
   The main improvements are:     
      
    - libraw updated to version 0.13.1 (dcraw 9.06)     
      
     -> several new cameras supported     
      
     -> an additional interpolation method is available     
      
   - libpng updated to version 1.5.1     
      
   - IJG (JPEG) updated to version 8c     
      
   - OpenJPEG (JPEG2000) updated to version 1.4     
      
   - The dependency to TCPIP32.DLL that came in with RAW support in GBM 1.70 is   
   removed again. This should make GBM.DLL and thus all clients work on Warp 3   
   and Warp 4 without 32bit TCPIP stack installed working again.     
      
       
      
   GBM plugin 1.43 for Netscape/Mozilla/Firefox/SeaMonkey     
      
   ------------------------------------------------------     
      
   This is a plugin for the Webbrowsers Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox and SeaMonkey   
   available for OS/2 and eComStation that extends them for the support of   
   reading all bitmap formats supported by GBM.DLL.     
      
    Get the package gbmos2plugins_lu142_moz143_bin.zip or the WarpIN installation   
   package (see below). There is also a Mozilla XPI installer package available   
   separately (also included in WarpIN package) which also allows automatic   
   updating of the plugin.     
      
       
   GBM.DLL 1.72 and GBM command line tools     
      
   ---------------------------------------     
      
   The Generalised Bitmap Module (GBM) is a library capable of loading and saving   
   bitmap files in a variety of popular and less popular bitmap file formats.   
   Programs may be written to use this code, and thus be able to access a variety   
   of file formats without actually knowing what format the pictures are in, or   
   any details about file format itself.     
      
   It comes with a useful set of command line bitmap manipulation tools.     
      
       
      
   Get package gbmos2_172_bin.zip or the WarpIN installation package     
      
   (see below).     
      
       
      
   Enhanced GBMV/GBMV2 Version 1.58     
      
   --------------------------------     
      
   GBMV2 is a fast and simple bitmap viewer and editor for the OS/2 and eCS   
   Presentation Manager. GBMV is a simple bitmap viewer.     
      
    Get package gbmos2pm158_bin.zip or the WarpIN installation package     
      
   (see below).     
      
       
      
   Notes for eComStation 1.2/1.2R/2.0 users     
      
   ----------------------------------------     
      
   Please read the installation instructions. eCS 1.2/1.2R/2.0 ships with     
      
   an old GBM.DLL (1.12) which prevents loading of the new GBM.DLL (1.72).     
      
   Please follow the instructions to use the new GBM.DLL for all programs as well   
   as for eCS WPS features like bitmap previews.
