fixrl(utilities)  —  Alias Research v2.1

 

NAME

fixrl infile outfile − sets the offsets to 0, height-1

DESCRIPTION

The x and y offsets contained in an Alias format run-length pix file are used to determine where to save or load the file relative to the dimensions of the target frame buffer.  If you save files from the middle of the screen, in the paint or video I/O modules, you will be able to load them back exactly using these offsets.  If you want to load these files onto video, you must place them in the lower left corner of the frame buffer.  Running fixrl on the target file will ensure that it will load in the right place. 

USAGE

fixrl infile outfile.  This will ensure that the pix files are displayed in the lower left hand corner of the Iris frame buffer. 

COMMENTS

Type fixrl -i to get the version number.  Old (unnumbered) versions will not be supported after this release. 

Version .1  —  December 29, 2021
