Ok, I'm new to software development on the ST, and I want to do
something fairly basic, but essential.
How do I convert a saved DEGAS pic or block and then convert it to a
bitmap so I can blit it around in C?  Should I use DEGAS or some
other graphics program?  Are there PD programs out there that will
convert a pic to data that I can load into memory?
Currently I'm using MWC.. how does Laser C compare?  What is the
best
C compiler currently for the ST?

Anyway, any response via e-mail or posting to any of these questions
would be greatly appreciated!

thanks in advance!
