Amazing.  The people who are supposed to be assisting the developers aren't
aware of *any* programs in the Apple community that can do this.

I can sort of understand this, assuming that the pictures are too large to
fit on a single screen.  In this case, it makes more sense to leave them
as they are and let people decode them themselves.

[for those of you who don't know, I believe MacDown, SHR Convert, and something
called "The Graphics Exchange" will convert MacPaint -> Apple II format]
