   Yes indeed.  CSHOW will do exactly this, provided you have enough memory
for it to store the entire image (otherwise, it will only allow you to
scroll around as much as it has memory for ... this is only a problem for
users with high-resolution cards, large GIFs, or small amounts of main
memory; I don't know if it will use EMS).  You can find a copy somewhere
on wsmr-simtel20.army.mil; try the PD1:<msdos.gif> or PD1:<msdos.graphics>
directories (it's been a while since I've had FTP access)-: or on mirror
sites.
