[fa.info-mac] MacDraw

I have been working with MacDraw (version 0.992  10/10/84).  In general
I am fairly pleased with it.  There are several small things that should
be fixed, though.  The arrow cursor is used almost exclusively; I think
that a bombsight cursor (like FileVision uses) would be much easier to
use.  The show size feature is really nice, but is useless towards the
right hand side or bottom of the screen, since no check is made to be
sure the numbers are on the screen.  An alternative SHOW LOCATION
ability would be nice too.  The biggest gripe I have right now, though,
is a picture that I cannot print.  The picture contains 42 objects and
uses 2% of available storage on a fat mac.  When I attempt to print it,
I get the message "Printing is being terminated because the document has
a page containing more data than can be printed".  C'mon guys, you can
do better than that!
