About ggv
---------

"ggv" started as a port of Russell Marks "zgv" graphics viewer
to libggi. Somewhere along the way, it took a wrong turn. :)
"ggv" uses almost the same frontend as "zgv" so it should look
familiar to users of "zgv". "ggv" uses libgbm to handle all image
formats except JPEGs.

About libgbm
------------

This is a chopped up version of GBM from the Os/2 crowd.
I wanted a graphics lib that could handle a variety
of formats and GBM served the purpose well without the
need for "reinventing the wheel".

All the Os/2 junk has been ripped out and there are still
some things that need to be cleaned up in the lib itself.

This version of GBM handles the following image formats:

1. Bitmap : OS/2 1.1, 1.2, 2.0 / Windows 3.0 bitmap : .BMP .VGA .BGA
                                                      .RLE .DIB .RL4
                                                      .RL8
2. GIF    : CompuServe Graphics Interchange Format  : .GIF
3. PCX    : ZSoft PC Paintbrush Image format        : .PCX .PCC
4. TIFF   : Tagged Image File Format support        : .TIF .TIFF
5. Targa  : Truevision Targa/Vista bitmap           : .TGA .VST .AFI
6. Greymap: Portable Greyscale-map (binary P5 type) : .PGM
7. Pixmap : Portable Pixel-map (binary P6 type)     : .PPM
8. XBitmap: X Windows bitmap                        : .XBM
9. Amiga  : IFF / ILBM Interleaved Bitmap           : .IFF .LBM
