Well, here... hold it a minute while I think. So many possibilities...

(1) Send it to a printer, one color at a time.
(2) Send it to a postscript printer, ditto.
(3) Page it through CHIP to use it as the background for a videogame.
(4) Page it through CHIP under MIDI control for a video.

So it's gonna be slow... big deal. It took a while to generate in the first
place. Leave the computer and printer on all weekend. With a BIG UPS.

Take it to a Mac user group and threaten to tell them what sort of computer
does work like this :->.
