Hi,
I would like to edit the program file for this black jack
game. To tell pgm to view *.png file instead of .bmp files.
Can someone tell me what to look for & enter in the .exw
file? It does not work to just enter .png where .bmp is
listed in the .exw file.

And I suppose you knew it all when you came to Euphoria Sephiroth_?
Sorry lakatzz at juno.com !
He did answer your question right but, he didnt add that
there are alternative libraries on the user contribution page.
One that I use alot is named "incbm" that allows you to include
you bmp images in your programs and it also makes the bmp near
the compression size you would find in RLE encoded bmp's.
If you need help dont be apprehensive, just ask, someone has or
can find an answer to almost anything related to programming in
general. Ive asked so many questions myself I couldnt begin to tell you.
Even still, after almost 5 yrs useing Euphoria I dont know it all...
I hope this helps,
Euman

Thanks Euman as I just learned about Euphoria last week.
Can I say, he is a jacka** as well as rude!

I have already converted the .bmp files over to .png format. I just want
to tell bjv2 it has .png files to
look for instead of .bmp. I am not trying to compile all
the pgm files, only to use pgm files the way they came.

Good as I do have several question that have been running
in my head since I learned of Euphoria last week.

It does & thanks.
