IPF Images

Greaseweazle optionally supports reading IPF image files via the CAPS/SPS library, which must be installed in your Greaseweazle folder, or in a standard system location.

On Windows the CAPS/SPS library is installed automatically alongside the Greaseweazle executable. On other platforms the library should be downloaded from the SPS website.

Please note that the library supports read-only access to IPF images: it is not possible to create new IPF image files.

Windows

Installed automatically. No further steps required.

macOS

Intel:

1. Download version 4.2 for Mac OS X (ipflib42_macosx-universal.dmg.zip).
2. Copy the CAPSImage.framework folder to /Library/Frameworks.

M1, M2 (ARM64):

1. Download version 5.1 for Mac OS X on ARM64 (CAPSImg_5.1.3_macOS_ARM64.tar.xz).
2. Copy the CAPSImg.framework folder to /Library/Frameworks.

When you first attempt to use the library you may see a dialog appear stating "CAPSImage.framework" cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. In this case:

1. Press Cancel
2. Run Setting -> Security. Click on Allow Anyway.
3. Run Greaseweazle again. If the dialog reappears, click Open.

Linux

Download version 4.2 for 32-bit (ipflib42_linux-i686.tar.gz) or 64-bit (ipflib42_linux-x86_64.tar.gz) Linux as appropriate. The file libcapsimage.so.4.2 should be installed to a standard system-wide location. For example (as root):

cp libcapsimage.so.4.2 /usr/lib
ldconfig

Alternatively set environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the location of the library. For example, if the library is in the current working directory:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`
