This is the Amiga port of hpcdtoppm 0.6 written by Hadmut Danisch.
(danisch@ira.uka.de)

This port is done by Günther Röhrich. (Guenther@studbox.uni-stuttgart.de)

This program is originally written for UNIX machines and needs a lot of memory,
especially for the higher resolutions. If the program aborts due to a lack of
memory you may try it again after a reboot of your machine. The use of virtual
memory is highly recommended.

It is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG Group. (I am using
version 4 of their JPEG software, I will turn to version 5 when I got the time)

System requirements:

An Amiga with lot of (virtual) memory and:

- OS 2.0 or higher
- ixemul.library V39 or higher in the LIBS: directory
  (you can find the library on Aminet in dev/gcc)
- a CD-ROM drive capable of reading Photo-CD's
