what is it?
===========
Ida is a small and fast image viewer, motif-based. For people who
don't want the KDE/GNOME overhead. Some basic editing functions are
available too.
build
=====
ida uses Motif 2.x features (utm, render tables). This means you need
openmotif, lesstif does *not* work.
It also uses the usual graphics libraries (libtiff, libpng, libjpeg,
...), you should have these installed to get support for these image
formats.
$ ./configure [ any options ]
$ make depend
$ make
$ su
# make install
usage
=====
There is a manual page, check it out.
what "ida" stands for?
======================
It is just a name. The utility used to be named "iv" for "Image
Viewer", but that gave lots of name clashes. Its very likely that
people name such a tool "iv", it is also used as shortcut for
InterViews (remember Sun's Open Windows?). So i decided to rename it.
I looked for a short name starting with 'i' in a list for children
first names. I like "ida", so I picked this one. It is a old, german
name.
Have fun,
Gerd
