Hi there Pete,
Oh ok, well that means RDS decided to *replace* EuViewer with
EuViewer2, even though the two are very different viewers
internally. What i could do is zip the older version and add it
to the EuViewer2 zip and resubmit to the archive...at least
the old copy (with the converter) will still be available.
I had pre-read don's reply and he had said that he intended to
upload his viewer, which is a spinoff of the first viewer 'EuViewer'
so that will supply the converter also.
If you use another paint program that should work too as you
found out already i think.
Yes, not a serious issue, but i was thinking of reverting to
the older decompressor on error (sort of an overkill probably
though he he).
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
