I see... still, eating up lots of space on CCO for picture data is not good.
Keeping the data in a more portable format (i.e. not APF) whose compression
is better (like GIF or JPEG) and leaving it on other FTP sites is better
because it lets us keep more _programs_ and truly Apple II specific stuff
on CCO without pissing off the administration. This is something for the
"1 gig drive" if it ever becomes reality (where is Steve Chiang anyway? I
lamed out and lost his address again and couldn't send in my contribution).

That's strange. Jawaid tells me it works great under GNO. Maybe you have
something else in your system that is stomping on it.
