Hi. I have just found yet another grasp program, this one is labeled "Grasp V1.10", and the package contains: - RunTime Grasp viewer (grasprt). - Grasp file creation program (basically a text editor, with a facility, to "graspview" the result of the editing). - glib (Yet another grasp librarian). - A TSR to capture part of the screen, and save it as a .PIC file. - Manual describing the grasp language. - Utilities to find size of PIC & CLP pictures. - Grasp fonts. - A CGA grasp demo. The package is pretty old (1986), and the manual does not mention VGA at all. There is no description of the PIC or CLP formats. I thought that the grasp format was created by Paul Mace, and that he just used the same .PIC format as PCPAINT-PLUS . This package was made by "Microtex Industries, Inc.", and describes grasp as being made to put PCPAINT to better use. The package is USEware (if you use it, you should pay $50 to Microtex). Does anyone know who created the grasp language? Is "Microtex" a "Paul Mace" company? PS The .gl filecreator and the "capture" facility trashes a Hercules screen :-( Claus (zonker@diku.dk) -- Claus Engdahl (zonker@diku.dk, postmaster@diku.dk, staff@diku.dk,,,,,) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- My motto is: Honi soit qui pense ;-)
