[for all you do...]
I'm reposting this as it never made it out (at least we never saw it
in Calgary
Kim, PHONTON PAINT (sp?) is not the only painting program
that has EHB. ExpressPaint has had EHB mode since v1.1
which was released in September '87.
Express Paint V2.0, which has been shipping for the last
two weeks, has additional support for EHB including a spray
painting tool that allows the paint to build on the "canvas"
so simulate a real air brush.
BTW: ExpressPaint is the ONLY paint program that allows you
create bitmaps larger than 1024 pixils wide. Can you say
full page lasar printing? EXP also supports postscript
output as well.

My earlier comments were based on a "review" in The Amiga Sentry magazine, which went into great detail about PPaint's use of EHB. Perhaps the reviewer had a pre-release version that did include EHB, I dunno. Sorry for any confusion caused by my comments, which were based on this incorrect article. It's really nice to see all the competition in the paint program arena. The products just keep getting better and better, and at a really rapid rate! Wonder which package will be the first one to implement an ARexx interface (hint, hint)? Now, if there was just a little bit of similar competition in the CAD area ... /kim -- UUCP: kim@amdahl.amdahl.com or: {sun,decwrl,hplabs,pyramid,ihnp4,uunet,oliveb,cbosgd,ames}!amdahl!kim DDD: 408-746-8462 USPS: Amdahl Corp.

He started working on it long before DigiPaint was out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Udi Finkelstein | Bitnet: finkel@taurus.bitnet or finkel@math.tau.ac.il Tel Aviv University | Internet: finkel%taurus.bitnet@cunyvm.cuny.edu Israel | UUCP: ...!psuvax1!taurus.bitnet!finkel -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
