Dumps out single pictures and sounds from animation.datatype
objects.
A (good -- but not perfect) example how to use the
datatypes classes for reading and writing (reading using
animation.datatype subclasses, picture.datatype and sound.datatype
for writing).

----

This release (V1.6) fixes problems with animation.datatype V41.

This version has been RISC'ed, e.g. the set of options has been reduced.
Local encoders (IFF FILM, IFF ANIM-0/3) have been removed because
they are already implemented in the subclasses (film.datatype, anim.datatype,
mpegvideo.datatype).
A follwoing version will implement such a subclass encoder support.

----


Features are:
- Animation information.

- Supports any type of animation for which an animation.datatype
  subclass is installed (e.g. "anim.datatype", "cdxl.datatype",
  "mpegvideo.datatype", "mpegsystem.datatype", "picmovie.datatype",
  "anim.datatype", "film.datatype", "moviesetter.datatype" etc.)
  in your system.

- Creates single frames and/or sounds from the animation.

- Creates a single big sample from all sounds in the movie (e.g.
  animation+sound).
