A good friend of mine has written a MacPaint file viewer that works under
ProDOS on the IIgs, //c, and 128K //es.  It's kind of slow loading and doesn't
scroll, but it DOES keep the pics in their proper proportions so they don't
look stretched, with no loss of resolution.

Right now the program in question is "not-for-distribution" -- it runs but
isn't in its final form -- but I think I can con my pal into cleaning it up for
the public if he thinks there's a demand.  Being a hacker type, he's happy
enough when the thing does what it's meant to do, and doesn't mind exiting to
DOS to hand-change the prefix every time you swap disks . . . other people
aren't quite so patient :-).

I don't have EXECUTIONER, but if someone would be kind enough to email it to
me, I'd be glad to post the finalized version of the program.  It's pretty
short.

BTW -- someone PLEASE take another vote on comp.sys.apple.binaries, or whatever
you're going to call it . . . we neeeeeed it!
