/* ---------- "Penguin Software and The Complete G" ---------- */

  Hello,

    Last night a friend of mine showed me an old program called the Complete
    Graphics System.  I have used Apple's for a long time and I never had
    the chance to see this program.  I was in need of a graphics program
    that uses the mouse or keyboard and does a good zoom mode.
    Well, this program has a nice one, but it doesn't run under Prodos
    and it doesn't have the capability to toggle bits in the zoom mode.
    Still, it was written in Applesoft and I could modify it.  It is the
    only program I know that could do the zoom mode correctly and easily.
    (8/16 Paint and Blazing Paddles are too difficult to use.  You can't 
    easily predict what color will result).  It also has some nice pain
    features that I wouldn't have expected.  I seem to remember that a
    program called the Artist that might do the proper zoom mode
    stuff, does anybody know?

    Anyhow, does Penguin Software still exist and/or did they make a 
    ProDOS version of this wonderful program?  Where can I purchase it?


  Thanks for any help,
