I want to thank the group for the help so far in this matter,
but I still have a few problems...

How can I make an intuition window/screen send all of the bitmaps
and the colormap of an intuition window/screen over to an iff file
correctly?  I am currently using jiff.c, jiff.h, jiff_save.c,
and other small routines, but I have not yet been able to
satisfactorily do it yet.  I have a 640/200 window, 16 colors,
and have read up on rastports, but still do not have a true iff save.
My current picture is only saving approx 4 colors, so somehow, it is only 
getting 2 bitmaps out of the 4.

Also, in Rob Peck's book, he mentions how to draw onto a off-screen
rastport, and copy onto the current screen.  What I need to do is
to draw on the on screen rastport without using the memory of an off-
screen one.

Thanks for any and all help...
