Spyglass: a lot of really great potential not being realized because the
Format Converter code behind it is a mess. :-(

It was supposed to be a mesh of object-oriented code so tightly arranged
that you could click through, for example, a ShrinkIt .SDK file containing a
disk image, to a BASIC file on that disk. Or a .PO disk image contaning a
.SHK archvie to a hi-res graphics screen.

As it stands, you can only go one level deep. This is also the reason why
the Apple II search engine project has stalled: the backend Format Converter
code is not ready to handle the demands.
