I wish people would use uuencoding... Free Agent can`t handle MIME.
Never mind, WinZip did the job.

Is this a Liberty Basic creation? It managed to totally freeze my computer for
two minutes when I didn`t put a filename in (I just hit enter) ... although I
eventally managed to recover it to write this reply using the three fingered
salute (that`s Ctrl+Alt+Del BTW <g>)

It`s a bit buggy, and might as well be a DOS program as it has no interface.
Would anyone be interested in yet another GIFscii clone if I was to make one...
infact I may release all of my little programs in a 'Martin Atkins`s ASCII Art
Utilities' pack... :o)

Bye,
Martin
