1926.0. "Fish disk title request" by RGB::SCOTT () Thu Dec 01 1988 12:51

 The new Fred Fish disks contains several tidbits I'm interested in -

from 164:

PcView          Provides the PC community with the opportunity to display 
                IFF pictures to the best of EGA's ability.  Displays Amiga
                pics, IBM-PC Deluxe Paint Pics, Apple II-GS Deluxe Paint  
                Pics, and others in the IFF standard format.  Includes    
                source.                                       ^^^^^^^^
                ^^^^^^
	  If someone is willing to upload this for me, I'd take a stab at
converting for use on the GPX. (I can already do ILBM pictures...)

from 170:

Dis6502         A ported 6502 disassembler with support added for C64
                binary files.  Includes source.                      
                Author:  Robert Bond, Amiga port by Udi Finkelstein  

	I don't have a C64, but I do have a KIM and some homebrew 6502 based
projects that this would be useful for.

Surf            Generates bezier surfaces of revolution.  Will produce some 
                amazing pictures of wineglasses, doorknobs, or other objects
                one could turn on a lathe.  Includes the capacity to map IFF
                image files onto any surface that it can draw.  Source      
                included                                                    
                Author:  Eric Davies                                        

	Again, I'll attempt a port to the VAX, if it's not too Amiga O/S
dependent.

  Thanks in advance!

  Well, but:

$ dir NORSE""::AMIGA:[000000...]surf
No files found                      

   Has it vanished?

1926.5Displaying ILBM on GPXDNEAST::PFISTER_ROBI cant put *THAT* here.....Thu Dec 01 1988 14:194
    I'd be interested in your program for displaying ILBM pictures on
     a GPX, my attempts at such a program haven't yet been sucessfull...

1926.7again, almost...RGB::SCOTTThu Dec 01 1988 14:5611
  Re .4 -

  The .zoo file doesn't contain sources. And I haven't written an Amiga 
emulator for the Vax yet :-)!

  Re .5 - 

  Will get my stuff in to a releaseable form very soon, and post a note...
