That's cool too...

I should have a look at Tom's core routines to see if I can wedge something 
like that into AppleWin... but I just yesterday had a look at the code for 
his screen grabs and I've got too much to do already... gotta work too...

Your cough is getting worse. Either the high-test where you are wasn't 
properly flushed or maybe you chain-smoked a pack of Studio Reds (my brand 
eh!).

The main advantage of interchanging file formats from where I sit is to edit 
the darned things and then make neat toys with them.

But hey, I'm old, so I think strangely about compilers and graphics. They 
were rare and wonderful when I got into programming. The memory dump thing 
is something I will be pursuing with Tom at some point (I have been thinking 
about it for a few years along with everything else)but I would feel like a 
leech if I didn't write-it and give it to him.

Bill
