The SPX Editor

This disk contains all you need to create your own Spectrum 512 extended format pictures. You can combine up to 10 Spectrum 512 screens into one file or piece together files from the PC or the Amiga which are larger than the ST's physical screen depth. For example, an Amiga high res picture of 320x400 can be saved on the Amiga as two 320x200 screens, ported across to the ST, imported into Spectrum 512, re-saved as two SPC files and joined back together as a single SPX file. This program is most useful to users who also own Amigas or PCs. A number of sample SPC files are provided for you to play around with. This latest version is fully compatible with Gizmo's SPX format and the shower program has been updated to allow Ice packed or Atomik packed screens to be viewed. Another program on disk allows you to split large GIF and IFF files into 320x200 chunks to be spliced together in the SPX creator. Also on disk are numerous completed SPX files created by Radical Systems.
