Ah yes, that is right.  I got confused.  I remember trying to get a
decent DHR conversion of a particular GIF with it and not being too
successful at it (severe aspect ratio problems).

I think the program I was looking for here was either SHRConvert or
SuperConvert.  Not sure at all about the time frame, nor am I sure I can
even find the disk it is on.
