Overview

P/ST Graphics allows Portfolio screen graphics to be viewed and translated on
ST computers.  Both PGF and PGC file formats (created by Don Messerli of 
Software Vineyard) are supported.  P/ST can translate files from one format to
the other.



Starting P/ST Graphics

P/ST Graphics is a GEM based program designed to be executed from the desktop.
Double click on the program's icon (PSTGR.PRG) to start the program.  A dialog
box will be displayed which contains buttons that allow you to choose a file
to read/display or write.



Using P/ST Graphics


There are six action buttons in the main dialog box:

	1.  Read PGC--This button prompts for and reads a PGC compressed
		file.  The file is checked for a correct header within
		the file, and will display an error message in the Status:
		box if the file is not a PGC file.

	2.  Write PGC--This button will compress and write the image
		currently displayed in the main dialog box to a PGC file.

	3.  Read PGF--This button prompts for and reads a PGF file.  Since
		PGF files are simple bit images, _any_ file may be read and
		displayed with this command.  Non-PGF files (such as text,
		wordprocessing, or other data files) will most likely
		appear as random dots in the main dialog.

	4.  Write PGC--this button writes the image currently displayed in
		the main dialog box to a PGF file.

	5.  About...--This button produces an informational display
		about P/ST Graphics, and how to contact the author
		with comments or questions.

	6.  Exit--This button ends this session of Calendar Printer.

The Status: box provides information about P/ST Graphics' current activities,
and also displays error messages.
