Thanks for the tip. I could not find it in any of the libraries. If you want to leave me a copy my cserve number is 76427,2701. Does aaplay have the ability to play from a floppy? I'm looking for a small gif/flic player that will enable me to play presentations from a floppy disk. Ideally this player will have some sort of scripting capability. Also, I'm trying to find out how to accomplish the same thing with a mac. Perhaps there is a way to convert flics and gifs to quicktime. Do you have any ideas? Darren Saravis

AAPLAY can do scripts, fli's, and gifs… although the latter 2 are only at 320×200. Does anyone know of a FLC player??
