Hi, A while ago I asked if it was possible to show GIF pictures from a TP5.5 program. I was told that there's a file called gif-pas.zip at the server LISTSERV@vm1.nodak.edu. So I placed a request and took the file it with me only to find out that it can only be used with TP4.0. My question : Does someone out there has the source (or TPU) for TP5.5? Thanks in advance, Erwin van Egmond <erwvegm@cs.vu.nl> ++ Erwin van Egmond UUCP: ...!mcsun!cs.vu.nl!erwvegm ++ ++ ++ ++ With a rubber duck, one's never alone ++ ++ -- "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" ++

How hard could that be? > I'd like to apologize to Mr. Egmond, who informed me that gif-pas.zip contains precompiled .TPU's for TP 4.0. I assumed, incorrectly, when I saw the 'pas', that this was pure source code. Of course, there's no way to modify a .TPU to work with a later version other than to recompile the source. There are a few other files perhaps worth looking into at SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL, available via LISTSERV@VM.ECS.RPI.EDU and LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU. In Directory PD1:<MSDOS.GIF> GIFSRC.ZIP, TP source code for GIF viewer; GIFLIB11.ZIP, TC 2.0 GIF library; GIF-CSRC.ZIP, C source for GIF viewer; GIF89A.ZIP, GIF 89a specification. Again, I apologize for my mistake.
