   No I won't.  I went to the archive (finally figuring out where it was)
and could find no discussion of "abc" and no way to search the archive
for discussion of any of these.  Gregory, you keep telling people to look in 
the archive, but I have seen no way in which the archive is indexed or 
searchable in any way unless the item in question is in the _header_
of the message. Since this is unlikely...  How do _you_ do it?

  NWC -- (my favorite) will _print_ graphics but it won't export them in a 
machine readable (jpeg, mpeg, gif or even bmp) form as far as I can tell
It is also Win9x obligate, so it doesn't help Tibicen.  On the other hand I
unqualifiedly recommend it for any PC/Win user. Pay the author his shareware
fee -- It is really _worth_ the $40 he's asking for it.
