AMIGBN/CHOP
Mike,
Your problem with Aterm5 chopping the picture file too short can be
kludged after-the-fact as follows: Type the command:
copy * to nulls
and enter a few nulls from the keyboard (Ctrl-@) followed by one ctrl-\ to end
the file. You now have a file with nothing but nulls in it, and can use the
JOIN command to join your picture to the nulls, resulting in a proper length
file. For example:
join this.pic nulls as newthis.pic
The reason this works is that Aterm5 only chops nulls from a file (the ctrl-Z
chopping hasn't been fixed yet(?)), so you can be assured that adding nulls is
the right thing to do. Further, you don't need to worry about adding too many
nulls, because IFF programs don't care if the IFF files are too long. They
just ignore the extra characters.
