Ben, Would it be possible for you to post the various versions of the rexx programs included in the pie.lzh archive? I've found that i have lots, but have somewhere misplaced the pie.lzh archive and don't know if it'd be worth the d/l Any chance of getting the separate scripts as options to d/l from your bbs? (I love calling at 2 or 3 in the morning 😉 And, another *smallish* request…..I happen to use IP or IM ( I have both 🙂 to view a bunch of GIFs every now and then. Of course, IM/IP loads the GIF, converts it to RGB and then displays it with my display defaults. BUT….if I use the "view ENTIRE pic" option, the graphic tends to get crunched, especially if text is on the image. I'd love to have the capability to do one (or both) of the following options: 1) slide the image around, perhaps in a reduced bitplane mode (for speed purposes) before IM/IP redraws the picture. Ideally, I'd love to be able to grab the pic with the arrow, and reposition it that way.. It just takes sooo long to redraw that I get frustrated 🙂 2) have an option (of your choice, maybe a Shift-Alt-F key one) that allows me to shift the image more than the quarter of an inch it currently does before it redraws. Basically, I'm looking for a way to reposition the image in Exact size to the part I want to look at. IM/IP gets pretty frustrating for me the way I'm currently using it. If you know of an easier way that already exists, please let me know! Next, I was wondering if there's a way to eliminate the vertical distortion I currently experience when using the "Lace" option from the display selector. With the HAM-E device, I just *love* to view the pics in lace, but all the images are 1/2 as high as they're supposed to be. Is there a way to resize the image to make it twice as large vertically when I switch to the lace option? I suppose that another option would be to simply repeat every other scanline [ MORE ]
