[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Bitmap Rotation Source Code

------
First:

Several people have been asking me where to get UMPG. The last time I looked,
it was still available with anonymous ftp from sumex-aim.stanford.edu, so
that would be the first place to look for it.

On sumex, umpg can be found as:
	./tech/usenet-mac-prog-guide-part1.hqx
	./tech/usenet-mac-prog-guide-part2.hqx

Anyway, if you're looking for a specific file and you have some idea about
it's name, the easiest way to look for it is to use archie. You can telnet
to this service at: 132.206.2.3. Log in as archie and search for the file
by typing
		prog UMPG

This way you find only one occurence of UMPG, but that's at least something.

------
Second:

The people who contacted me about finding UMPG haven't run into the second
problem yet, but I imagine they will. I submitted an article about bitmap
to region conversion and an article about bitmap rotation, but they were
combined into a single article in UMPG, so you'll find the rotation code
along with the article on bitmap to region code. They share a subroutine,
so I guess there was a good reason for combining these articles.

The bitmap to region article is _n_o_t in the QuickDraw section. It's
there with other larger articles near the end of UMPG.
