SuperPaint 2.0, according to the Get Info box is 505K and the suggested
memory size is 700K. The pouch which contains tools like the spray can,
3D box, bubbles, charcoal, cycloid, diffuse, dry and fade brushes, etc.
is 193K. The Other Plug-ins pouch containing the balloons, footprints,
hearts, snowflakes, starrs, etc. is 55K.

My secretary couldn't seem to use these tools the other day until we
reinstalled SuperPaint. We have no idea what happened, except that she
had stuck SuperPaint in the pouch folder and taking it out didn't help.
