Maybe you can answer a question for me.  I found Imploder 3.1 on ab20,
and tried it on Photon paint and Dpaint III, with odd results.  Both
are overlayed, and appeared to work when compressed.  Yet, when I
'uncrunch' them, the files are different than the original (pre-crunch)
versions.  Why?

Also, even though I added explode.library to libs: (I even tried using
loadlib to make it 'resident'), I can't get the 'Library' gadget
un-ghosted.

Thanks,
Chris
