		cd jpeginfo-1.6.2
		./configure

HISTORY
	v1.6.2 - improved Win32 support thanks to tumagonx
	v1.6.1 - support for new libjpeg v7 thanks to Guido Vollbeding,
		 fix to display of 8bit characters by Pierre Jarillon
	v1.6.0 - added support for printing out Comments (from COM
	         markers), Exif format images are now also recognized
	         (no Exif marker decoding functionality, though).
	v1.5   - configuration is now done with GNU autoconf, 
		 program now uses free MD5 algorithm,
		 added file size as new field on reports,
		 program now returns exit code 1 if one or more of the jpegs
		 had any errors, useful for testing if particular jpeg is
	         ok from shell scripts, 
	         also if you specify -q (--quiet) option twice on
		 command line, then program won't produce any output.

	         new switch -f for passing filenames to program from
	         file or stdin.
