NEW: GBM File Dialog REXX adapter library (GBMDLGRX 1.0)
--------------------------------------------------------
(Public Domain)
The REXX adapter DLL allows REXX programmers to use the GBM File Dialog in their programs. It requires availability of GBM.DLL and the GBM File Dialog DLLs (GBMDLG.DLL and GBMDLG.HLP).

GBM.DLL 1.38 and GBM command line tools
---------------------------------------
(Public Domain)
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.
In this version, extended PNG, TIF and PPM support is additionally included. PNG and TIF support also 16, 32, 48, 64 bpp colour depths with/without alpha channel. PPM supports also 48 bpp colour depth.
It comes with a useful set of command line bitmap manipulation tools.
Get package gbmos2_138_bin.zip from Hobbes.

Enhanced GBMV2 Version 1.25
---------------------------

Enhanced release of the GBMV2-Viewer from the GBMOS2PM package:
