Notes

  1. Atavera's wrappers and RIG helper.
  2. DDS support using Paint.Net/libsquish code and DDSPanel/DdsFile s3pi library4 classes, no actual wrapper class.
  3. Echo's Postal API and editor. (Not yet reviewed.)
  4. Peter L Jones's s3pi library.

Note that "support" does not imply support is complete - please feel free to contribute corrections and extensions to the wiki if you find information not already documented here.
