- I was playing around with Picture-files in the examples folder.
- It writes a file that it can read back itself, but no other Mac applications
- recognize this as a pict file, unless you set the mac-file-type yourself.
- I had lots of small glitch problems of displays looking incorrect, and
- MacDraw, Canvas, Photoshop etc. all have different ideas about what a pict
- file should look like or even if its a valid pict file at all. I'll supply
- detailed examples upon request. This may not be Lisp's problem, it may be
- endemic to the underlying pict manipulation functions, as not every Mac
- program seems to agree on picts.
