- .SPS is the Smooshed Spectrum format. You can view/unsmoosh it with
- one of the later Spectrum viewers such as spslidex (or some such - its been
- so long since I got my TT that I have already forgotten a lot of ST specific
- software - but I still wish I had a TT compatible photochrome (I think that
- is the program that gives such great colors on an ST/STe) program - it would be
- really cool to see some of those neat .jpg pictures in 640x480x24bit on
- my stock TT).
