Can anyone point me in the direction of a detailed specification
for the DDIF fiel format? I'd like to write an Amiga IFF to DDIF
file converter.
Thanks

You wouldn't need to know the file format to write a DDIF converter.
Check out the CDA manual that's part of the DECwindows documentation
and follow the converter architecture. Related conferences:
DDIF::DDIF
DDIF::DDIF_CONVERTERS
If IFF is an image format, it's probably easiest to write the converter
using the Image Services library. For that info, check out:
VISUAL::IMAGING

What if the converter is to run on the Amiga? --PSW | |||||

Well, then it's a large matter of programming, because he'll have
to implement ASN.1 first on the Amiga. The ASN.1 definition of
DDIF is in an appendix of the CDA manual, so it's still the source
for information the person needs to do this.
