Some weeks ago I requested information on converting Apple //
HiRes graphics to Mac MacPaint files. I was trying to do it via GIF
conversion, but I only got GIF -=> Mac.
Anyway, I accidentally ran accross a free Mac program that
does the direct conversion. You send the HiRes file to the Mac
over a null modem using binary Xmodem, and then just run the
application. The program displays the HiRes pic on the Mac,
but this early version cannot save it directly. You have to
save the MacPaint file using Command-Shift-3. I think the program
is only B&W, but it is hard to tell on my SE.
If anyone wants the program, mail a short request to me.
If I get over 30 or 40 requests, I may try to figure out how to
send it to comp.binaries.mac. If anyone knows how to do this,
please let me know.
Oh, I forgot. There is a second application for Mac to HiRes
that I have not tried. In this case, you would convert on Mac
and then modem it to Apple //.
