I'm trying to write a program to read MacPaint documents (among some other
formats), and I can't fugure out what type of file it is.  If you save it as
"MacPaint" it gets a type of PNTG, and if you save as startup screen it
gets a type of SCRN, neither of which is the PICT I expected.   Can anyone
tell me what these files are?  I'll settle for either format, I don't need
both except for user-friendliness.

I eventually need to get this into a PicHandle, so that's best, but I'll just
settle for knowledge.  Apologies if this has been asked before, but I can't
find it.  Lots of references to MacDRAW, though....
