UCV.load image
UCV.ldi
Load a BMP-Picture as cover background
Intention
This command will load an bitmap file (BMP-file) onto the cover. The file will automatically be resized to fit the cover.
General usage is simple, if the picture is in ?path\, that is the folder, where the script itself is, you can just give the filename. Otherwise specify a complete path..
If you want to compile an executable, note that you have to include the picture file manually into the excutable using the
'#INC:?path\picture.bmp
command. There is currently no auto-include for images.
