And, in fact, Photon Paint does *not* use/support EHB, at all!  My earlier
comments were based on a "review" in The Amiga Sentry magazine, which went
into great detail about PPaint's use of EHB.  Perhaps the reviewer had a
pre-release version that did include EHB, I dunno.

Sorry for any confusion caused by my comments, which were based on this
incorrect article.

It's really nice to see all the competition in the paint program arena.  The
products just keep getting better and better, and at a really rapid rate!
Wonder which package will be the first one to implement an ARexx interface
(hint, hint)?

Now, if there was just a little bit of similar competition in the CAD area ...
