There are a number of programs that handle macpaint documents on a mainframe.
 MACHP.PAS.1
 MACIMP.PAS.1
 MACPTX.PAS.1
 MACQMS.PAS.1
 MACIMP.C.1
 MACLGP.C.1
 MACQMS.C.1
 PAINT2QMS.C.1
 PAINTIMP.C.1

are the ones in the SUMEX-AIM archive.  But, since you are on BITNET
you should try the archive at PUCC via:
	TELL MACSERV AT PUCC HELP
under VM/CMS.
