IMM requires X11R6 and either `xli' or `xv' to perform the -actual image display. +IMM has been designed to efficiently replicate files/file directories +using a reliable dissemination protocol framework and provide archiving +and post processing features. The default mode of operation is for imm +to receive and display compressed imagery files (e.g., jpg,gif) using +xv or xloadimage as a post processor. + +This release includes an sdr plug-in, named sdr2.plugin.S53.image.imm, +which must be installed to participate in MBone alpha testing of imm sessions. +Usually in a directory called ~home/.sdr/plugins to be found by sdr. +See the sdr help pages for information on installing plugins. |
