Din't test much :P

The test files are @ ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/qtapps/diffimg-testfiles.zip

This also works with opencv files, thankz to Xbee who has setup a OS2 build to make it availble for OS/2 :)

Look @ picture to get Yuv example to work.

1. INTRODUCTION
===============

Welcome to Diffimg v2.2.0 port for OS/2 and eComStation.
DiffImg is a simple image comparison tool which take two images with the same size as input. 
Some statitics are computed and the positions where pixel differ are displayed as a color mask.
Because DiffImg is written with Qt, it runs on Windows and Linux (MacOSX isn't tested yet) and OS/2.
