   and other less common formats

 - Supports both normal and progressive JPEG files

 - SmartScale capable JPEG decoder

 - Full true colour (24-bit) and high quality reduced colour (256 colours
   or less) and greyscale output modes, for graphics cards and native Amiga
   displays respectively

 - Highly optimized datatype dispatch engine, and fast JPEG decoder,
   resulting in a very efficient, compact and quick JPEG datatype

 - Asynchronous file i/o and double buffering techniques (WarpOS only),
   which speeds up image decoding

 - PowerPC support with native OS4, WarpOS and MorphOS versions

 - Alter the pen allocation precision when images are remapped to an
   8-bit display

 - Specific support for the AmigaOS picture.datatype v44+, when available

 - The dithering feature of the AmigaOS picture.datatype v44+ can be
   configured to your liking (e.g. disabled for 15/16-bit displays)

 - Based on the Independent JPEG Group's jpeglib 8d
