-
- Pictpixie is not meant to be a "real" application. It's basically
- a demo for programmers, so if you use it, you should expect some
- interesting "features."

-
- "es" stands for "exit to shell." This is just what the "es" command
- is supposed to do. To continue from the break, type "g" (for "go")
- instead.

- >Is there a way to avoid this? Would it work if I remove MacsBug?
-
- It should. I'd also suggest that you either remove Macsbug or
- get the manual so that you know what to do with it. It doesn't
- sound like you're a programmer, so you probably don't need MacsBug
- anyway.

-
- If you're getting the JFIF files off a PC or mainframe system,
- you may need to set the file type so that PictPixie can recognize
- them. You can do this using Resedit or a similar utility.
