Apparently there have been newer versions of SHRCONVERT made that weren't commercial. I just saw SHRCONVERT 2.7 on a BBS, and they said this was the last version before they go commercial. I didn't want to pay about 8 cents a minute for 15 minutes to download this thing, because that's how long it'd've taken... (And I was already on for more than 10 mins at that time, and I usually limit my calls "over the hill" to the Silicon Valley area to once a week and about 10-15 mins).. here's the description that the uploader wrote: SHRCONVERT.2.7 This is the last version before they go commercial. Replace your original with this and rename it SHRCONVERT and launch it with the SHRfinder. This is wild! DAMN, here's what someone said about the "ULTIMA VI GS" that I (with wild excitement) reported on a while ago: Ultima VI is a set of GIFS!! It is an IBM "ZIPPED" archive, and unpacks to a few gifs from the IBM version of Ultima VI.. Darn the people who uploaded them without checking them first! What a pisser, huh? WRITE TO ORIGIN REQUESTING ULTIMA VI //e and IIGS!!! Mail me for more info, as in addresses, etc.. If you're interested in WRITING Ultima VI //e or IIGS I have info for you too! -- /Apple II(GS) Forever! unknown@ucscb.ucsc.edu MAIL ME FOR INFO ABOUT CHEAP CDs\ \"If cartoons were meant for adults, they'd be on in prime time."-Lisa Simpson/

v2.7 was for AppleFest only and not supposed to be distributed. It also
doesn't do .GIF files, but it does 3200 color and TIFF files (and prolly more
that I don't use). Whatever, it shouldn't be available.

I think $1.20 is worth getting SHRConvert 2.7! Or you could spend another $30-odd bucks for SuperConvert from Seven Hills... \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ | Brian T.
