Thanks for the help, Murph. Thanks also to Doug Heacock, who responded
at length to my request. I have now have quit a bit of info about Macserve
that I am willing to share with anyone on request.

 The above mentioned Macserve has a program called Giffer, which
 converts GIF files; unfortunately, it works only on a Mac II.
 There is a freeware  program called MacDown which will display
 MacPaint pictures on an  Apple II+,IIe,IIc, or IIgs.
 Does anyone know of a way to display Apple II pictures on a Mac?

The "Input Anything " topic has been beaten to death, so I'll keep
this brief. Those of you vitally interested in this topic can find
a long discussion in the Sept. and Oct. 1985 issues of Open-Apple.
