Apple II Hi-res shape capture and animation system

ooops, the software on my site is broken!  I go to capture shapes and it is producing garbage graphics.  After an extended lunch break at work, I found the
problems and fixed them.  I will upload the fixed code soon.

I added commands to automate things, like saving a sequence of preshifted shapes.  One keypress and it saves all 7 shapes in a preshifted sequence, names them FILENAME0 to FILENAME6.  This is the format that the "addshapes" program expects .  Run the addshapes program, tell it width, height, input file name, output file name.  The program spits out a preshifted bitmap shape table that works with http://rich12345.tripod.com/srccode/graphic.html.  That page needs to be updated as well, the source is missing a few lines to update the pointer to the shape to be drawn.

Next I will use Bill Budge's preshift article from Byte to produce 6 shifted shapes from one NON shifted shape.  (IE, shift the SHIFT0 using tables)  Then a simple HGR pixel editor so you can design your graphics within the capture program.
