	I'm just wondering how you run this program. Everytime I try to 
use it, it just says OPEN ERROR and quit automatically. I typed in the 
gif file but just can't figure out what I should put in for the column 
and line. If anyone can help, that'll be so great! Thanks a bunch!

  Err, I'm assuming you're talking about a unix version?  I have not 
tried to compile it, I only tried the DOS version (the protected-mode and 
alpha versions both crash on me, only the normal/real mode exe works).

Hmm..  Ok, I just tried compiling it...  It makes an executable, but its 
fubar'd.  It loads the image, makes a tabel but for whatever reason, its 
giving me a suggested output of like 6608 columns and 600 rows!  I tried 
making it like 70x25, and its just a screen full of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Could it be cos it wants to make a 32 bit mode executable?? Anyone have 
any ideas how to hack it to work on a linux??
