I.	Usage
========================================
     a. Setup
----------------------------------------

The program comes already setup so that it can be used on Windows or Mac. Simply
extract the directory that corresponds to your operationg system.

If you're on Linux, you must first install Qt 4. This is usually the package
libqt4 in whatever package mangement system you're using, but the Linux version
can also be found on http://trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/x11

Also, the dependencies for nbm must be met. Please refer to the nbm readme for
setting up nbm.

The program may then be run by double-clicking it.

----------------------------------------
    b. Compiling
----------------------------------------

To compile this program, you must first install the development libraries for
Qt. The can be found either in your package manager if you're on Linux, or on
Trolltech's website: http://trolltech.com/downloads/opensource

After Qt is installed, navigate to the directory where you extracted FANG and
run these commands:

	qmake -config release
	make

After this command completes, you should have a working version of FANG.

If you are on a Mac, you must have jpegtran and nbm in the folder ../mac and run
this command first:

	qmake -config release -spec macx-g++

========================================
II.	Known bugs and caveats
========================================

Currently, the only know problem with FANG is that the progress bar may be
inaccurate. Just be patient and the conversion will finish eventually.

The error messages are not descriptive (more cover-all cases than anything
else), and if nbm does not launch properly, it may say that conversion succeeds
because of how FANG interfaces with nbm.

III.	History
========================================

v0.1.1 (2008-05-30)
- [Bugfix] Windows only: filenames with backslashes (i.e., all filenames) should
  now always work
- [Bugfix] The program will now catch errors from the backend better
- 64-bit Linux support dropped. If you want to use FANG on a 64-bit Linux
  installation, you'll have to compile it yourself

v0.1 (2008-02-17)
- Initial release

========================================
