Magic Brush comprises the following files which should be on your disk:

DO NOT RUN SNAPSHOT WHEN USING THE COMPUTER FOR IMPORTANT
WORK. RUN IT ONLY WHEN YOU WANT TO CAPTURE A GRAPHICS SCREEN
AND SAVE IT AS A MAGIC BRUSH PICTURE, THEN RE-BOOT YOUR
COMPUTER WITHOUT LOADING SNAPSHOT. BECAUSE SNAPSHOT IS A
TERMINATE-AND-STAY-RESIDENT (MEMORY-RESIDENT) PROGRAM, THERE
IS ALWAYS THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE COMPUTER WILL "HANG",
PARTICULARLY IF YOU ARE USING OTHER TSR PROGRAMS AT THE SAME
TIME. IF THIS HAPPENS, YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-BOOT, WHICH WOULD
RESULT IN YOUR LOSING DATA THAT YOU MAY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON.
The program was tested only on an IBM XT computer running
PC-DOS 3.1 and there were no apparent problems. PLEASE USE
IT WITH THE NECESSARY CARE.
