ACDSee is one program that actually uses the amiga method of looking the file header. I use that instead of windows exploder to view files. Apparently, it was written by at least one former amiga programmer which is one reason it can see IFF's. It can also open up Lha's. It also sees the camera info in the files from my Fuji. (EXIF or whatever it's called.)


Not saying that ACDSee lacks features, but every time I have installed it I've uninstalled it the same day. I don't know what happened, but a few years ago the application suddenly became waaaay to slow for me to even think about using. It takes forever to startup... and considering it is a applicating mainly for viewing pictures I find that somewhat strange, on border of being ridicilous. It's a shame, really, considering the power it has as an application.
