This is a quick hack for an image viewer/converter for MS-DOS

People on DOS ain't dead asked if it would be possible to create such a program for MS-DOS supporting modern image formats. As I had quite a lot of the necessary code already available from DOjS I decided to give it a try.

DosView uses Allegro to display the images, it should support all VESA modes that are implamanted by it. The default screen format is 640x480x24, see below for other options.

• BMP
• PCX
• TGA
• LBM
• QOI
• JPG
• PNG
• WEBP (using the .WEB file extension)

Usage:
  DOSVIEW.EXE [-hbl] [-q <quality>] [-w <width>] [-s <outfile>] <infile>
  -h           : show this screen
  -l           : list know screen modes
  -b           : try 32bpp screen mode instead of 24bpp
  -w <width>   : screen width to use.
  -s <outfile> : do not show the image, save it to outfile instead.
  -q <quality> : Quality for writing JPEG and WEPB image (1..100).

• ESC/Q: quit
• F: show actual size
• Z: fit to screen
• PAGE UP: increase zoom
• PAGE DOWN: decrease zoom
• UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT: move image
