 +Back to work and it was a good day.
 +
 +I implemented a new "​imgdecode"​ command by looking at how other commands are implemented. What this does, is iterate through all available decoders (currently there is only one: gzip/​DEFLATE) and probe the image with each one to see what format it has. If the image is compressed
 +in some format, the corresponding decoder will decompress it. It is still in a draft state, so it will probably be modified in the next couple of days after I get some feedback.
 +
 +I also sent a new version of the forcedeth patch that gives proper credit to the Linux driver. I will also send a patch for the pcnet32 driver that does the same.
