Re: Apple II screen shots utility?

["Frank Townsend" <ftownsen@iamdigex.net>]

Thanks!  Sounds like just what the doctor ordered.

Alas, I don't know exactly what to do with a bii file extension.

a2snip.dsk.shk.bii downloads on my Win98 machine as a2snip.dsk.shk.htm
I then remove the htm to get a2snip.dsk.shk, but when I try to dearchive it
with Nulib2, it says it is not a valid archive.

Suggestions?
