Re: GIF program authors? (Jonah Stich, Thomas Dorris)



OK, I looked through the source and executable a little... If you're just
wanting a quick and dirty scheme to make GIFview list all files regardless of
extensions, then use your favorite block/file editor and search for the   
sequence $2E 47 F0 05 (in my exec it appears at offset $25C4, but who knows
how many updates I've made to that thing).  Now replace the $F0 with $80 and
there you go.

The reason you may have had problems finding that location yourself is that
the check is not for the full .GIF extension.  Rather a check is made for
the .G at 4th from last location in the filename (yes, I'm lazy).  Anyway,
let me know if that works OK for you and let me know if anybody would actually
like the source code to this thing.
