We are looking for information on the following file formats.
I have tried to give a quick description of what we think the formats
are, but we really need to find sources for definitions.  Respond by
e-mail (unless you think everyone cares) to avoid the fatalities of "expire"
and I will summarize later.

1) PICT.  We're pretty sure this is the Macintosh format.  What is the
	best place to look for definitions?

2) GIF.  We think this is CompuServe's file format for images, but where
	can we find a good specification?

3) SCF.  We have no idea what this one is, but the name has been mentioned
	as something we need to support (??!)

Thanks in advance
Ian
