This directory contains software which can be used to display the             
Clementine images on a Macintosh II computer with an 8-bit color display.     
The NIH Image program, a public domain program written by Wayne Rasband       
of the National Institute of Health, is provided.  The program is stored      
in a StuffIt file called IMAGE.HQX which has been translated to BinHex        
format.  This file was compressed with StuffIt Lite which is distributed      
as shareware by Aladdin Systems, Inc.  To obtain StuffIt Lite write to        
       Adaddin Systems, Inc.

       Watsonville, CA  95076                                                 
       USA                                                                    
       (408) 761-6200                                                         
and for a minimal fee they will send you the latest version.  StuffIt         
which is not shareware can also be used to uncompress the software.  To       
extract the archive, first copy the file to a Macintosh.  Then run the        
Stuffit program, version 3.0.5 or later.  First select the "BinHex Decode"    
action in the "Translate" menu.  This transforms IMAGE.HQX into a Stuffit     
archive file named IMAGE.SIT.  Select the "Open" action in the "File"         
menu and "UnStuff" the archive.  The Image folder will be created.  This      
folder will contain the Image program, documentation, and several folders     
called 'kernels', 'macros' and 'palettes' which are distributed with the      
Image program.  Refer to the documentation for more information about the     
use of these folders.  The file 'Image Prefs' should be copied into your      
system folder.  It will set several of Image's default settings for use       
with the Clementine images, such as gray scale palette and a larger           
clipboard.  It is set-up for use on an 8-megabyte Macintosh with Finder       
running.  Users with 4-megabyte Macintosh systems may have to edit the        
'PREFERENCE' settings in the 'OPTIONS' menu of IMAGE and reduce the size      
of the undo and clipboard buffers to 100K in order to display some of the     
larger Clementine images.  Another file, 'CLEM Macros' provides macro code    
which will allow Clementine images to be automatically opened by the IMAGE    
program.  This macro must be loaded using the 'Load Macro' option in          
the 'Special' menu.  To use the macro, select the 'SPECIAL' menu in IMAGE,    
then select the 'IMPORT PDS' option near the bottom of the pull-down menu.    
This will cause a prompt for the file name which you wish to display.  Click  
on DRIVE until the file window shows the contents of the Clementine volume,   
then double click on folders to navigate through the disk or double click     
on a filename to open and display it.  Image should be run under Finder       
for best results.  When running under multifinder, the memory allocated       
to Image should be set as high as possible, using the Macintosh 'Get Info'    
command in the 'File' menu.  Updated versions of Image can be obtained        
via Anonymous FTP from lw.nih.gov [128.231.128.251] in the directory          
/pub/image.  Enter anonymous as the user name and anything you like as        
the password.  The image directory contains the latest version of Image,      
along with source code, HyperCard reference stack, and many sample images.
