hi!

  PilRC 2.5b is available now from the usual place - but newbies:

      http://www.hig.se/~ardiri/development/palmIII/index.html

  it is great to see the response to PilRC - the project is alive
  again :)) keep submitting bugs and/or bugfixes. if you do have
  a bug.. send as much info as you can! it does help :>

  changes in 2.5b:

   - tAIS and tStr resources

     a few handling errors (nothing fatal) for tAIS and tStr
     resources (ID management) during parsing

   - icon / bitmap compression
     bug report:  James Lee
                  Frank Fejes
                  Mike McCollister

     a very interesting bug :P only occured with bitmap 
     families and sometimes with compression. the next depth
     offset was being rounded DOWN, instead up UP :P thats
     fix #1, the compression? i just set the reallocated
     memory to zero - and it did not repeat for me.. anyone
     else have a problem??

     i wrote a sample program that tested both "smallicon" and
     "icon" to try and replicate the bugs being reported.. but
     they worked no problem :) as for compression? seems to work
     fine

   - RGB -> Color Index fix
     bug report:  David Oakley

     for those "fun programming" guys who like masking bitmaps,
     this was pretty serious :)) (astraware) :> black should
     really be index #255 :> hehe.. the RGB->Index algorithm
     found the first best match. which was 230 something :>> 
     some cool effects neverless! :)

     0,0,0 always returns #255 :>

  notice that PilRCUI has not changed in the latest releases
  i have included it again - however i am not building it
  (as i dont have the windoze C/C++ GUI compiler installed yet)

  however, there is some great things coming in PilRCUI - but
  when i get the info and patches, i will let everyone know!

  cheers.

az.
