ADOBE PHOTOSHOP PLUG-IN TO SUPPORT "PIX" FILES

                         Rob Neve, Enigma Studios


Here's the Photoshop plug-in.  It's a Windows-only version and
requires Photoshop 3.0.5 (or higher).  To install, copy the file into
the "photoshp\plugins" directory and make sure it's named
"aliaspix.8bi" (only the ".8bi" extension is important).  When
Photoshop is started, it will automatically recognize and load the
plug-in.  The format and .PIX extension will appear in the OPEN and
SAVE dialogs, and function just as any of the many other single-layer
formats.  There is also a pop-up in the HELP->ABOUT that copyrights
the plug-in using my software company, Enigma Studios.  To be clear,
it is freeware and has no restrictions whatsoever.

I've also included an updated spec.  Alias has a grayscale variant of
the PIX file that is virtually identical in format to the RGB, but is
differentiated in the Alias documentation (it's called a "matte"
file).  Since Alias imposes no naming convention on these files, we've
chosen to simplify the matter and call them both PIX files.  The
plug-in reads and writes both, of course.
