If you've actually got a copy of Ilmari's ascflip 0.3beta how about
you showing us here what it will do to the above picture?

I'm steering clear of 0.xbeta versions of these things. I've now got 
a very good working version out of the "betas" you came along with
and I don't really care about the size of the executables if they
give the right results.

LR.BAT sideways flipflops and TB.BAT top to bottom flipflops are 
just about perfect...why stuff around with something else until
you have seen a demonstration that the new alternative is at least 
as good or better?

Meanwhile you could post your URL to your finalised ASC-TOOL.EXE proggie.

HooRoo,
