After having read the OPTIKS posting, I find there are SO MANY graphics
formats that things seem to be getting crazy.

I am interested in collecting the DOCUMENTATION that describes how these
formats are organized.  I already have IFF (Amiga), GIF, and TIFF, although
I don't know for sure if they are the latest versions.

I would like to receive documentation in ASCII format (no word processor
formats, please) that is neatly arranged (some word processors generate
very bad ASCII output).  I will collect them, and if the colletion seems
to be reasonable, will make them available for anonymous FTP access or by
E-mail request.
