Nope. But GIMP apparently generates corrupted files where compressed scanlines aren't properly closed. (This is probably the reason why they falsely claim that SGI doesn't support those. Yes, some spec compliant readers may not like the corrupted GIMP files. ;-) I added a sanity check that makes sure we only read the number of specified bytes, and no longer read until we find the mandatory (which just may not be there in corrupt files). There should really be more sanity checks. This code is rather sloppy. It makes invalid assumptions about data type sizes, allocates insanely big buffers, had no sanity checks, ... Other corruption types will still crash this code, but the an2 file should work now. Avoid GIMP and use KDE, and you'll be fine. :-) m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
