1. Newbie question re Clipbrd.e and/or Windows printing

Hi everyone,

Has someone a way of transferring the palette data for an image to the
Windows clipboard using Jacques Deschenes clipbrd.e?

Or, is there a Win 32 program that can read a saved bitmap and open the
print dialog to print it?  My Windows programming skills aren't up to it.

I've written a simple paint program for DOS 32.  I need to let the user
print the picture they've created.  I couldn't do it throug DOS  so I tried
Jacques Deschenes clipbrd.e to copy the picture to the Windows clipboard (so
it can be pasted into a 'real' paint program), which worked really well
except that the palette is mixed up.

Thanks for any help,
Tracy

Paint Bruch (pbrush.exe ) a windows accesory can read bitmpa and pcx files.

To print a file run  pbrush.exe /p <filename>
eg pbrush.exe /p logo.bmp

I don't know about all microsofts windows programs but Notepad and Paintbrush
both accept /p on
the command line to cause it to print the file specified.

I have included a registry file to allow you to add print to the right-click
menu for bmp and
pcx files.
