Does anyone know the file format that Deluxe Paint uses to save
screen images? Specifically, I need the file.LBM format on an
IBM-PC.
Thanx.

Documentation and example code is available from Commodore Business Machines in West Chester through their developer's program or from the Fred Fish redistributable software collection which you should be able to find at most Amiga dealers. Since there are PD and commercial programs that allow the Amiga to read/write an IBM formatted disk (either 3.5 or 5.25) you should be able to talk someone at an Amiga dealership into copying the files you want onto an IBM disk for you. The lastest IFF spec that's been released on Fred Fish's collection is on Disk # 185. Of course, if my memory is faulty and the formats are NOT the same, disregard what I've said. -Ron Tarrant
