  MORPH.EXE  requires the GFABASIC.OVL to run.
It will take a CPAINT file, ANY file for that matter (ANSI),
and convert the the ESCAPE characters to a ^ or ~.  This
will work with CONDOR 4.1 or above only.  The reason for doing
this is to be able to put graphics on services that "filter" out
certain characters like ASCII 27 (ESCape).  Condor v4.1's #!character
command makes CONDOR.SYS recognize another character besides escape as a
attention character.  I recommend TILDE~ or POWER^ but you can use whatever
you like, although some characters may cause confusion or problems.

                 __PUTTING GRAPHICS in GEnie messages__

  You should first in CPAINT at the VERY beginning of the graphic
go to TEXT AREA in the EXTRA menu and set the text area to 1.  At the
end of the graphic be sure to RESET TEXT mode or at least  set TEXT AREA 
back to 25.  When you save the GRAPHIC use XSAVE, then run MORPH.EXE on the
XSAVED graphic file.  This should allow simple high resolution graphics in GEnie
message bases using CONDOR.SYS with COM-AND, BIG, PIBTERM, RCOMM, IL terminals,
and CONDOR.SYS ANSI too if you like. Just don't use the top 8 to 16 pixels
because GEnie or whatever BBS will STOMP on it with it's pause prompt.
If you shut off the BBS pause prompt you don't have to XSAVE but many users
just aren't going to do that.  I suggest to BBS programmers (mad modifiers)
that if the MESSAGE SUBJECT contains a ~ in it then the BBS program should
shut pauses off then when the BBS sees the next message SUBJECT without a ~ in
it then turn pausing back on.  This is what's needed in BBS software.

  I don't think the FAST TEXT BLOCK command in CPAINT will work on GEnie because
it uses a high ascii character(219).  XSAVE might mess up & LOOPs and timing in
MUSIC but we can still have a lot of online fun with it.  
Don't expect CPAINT to be able to handle MORPHed graphic files correctly.

  You can hand edit old Condor graphic files like this at the TOP of the file
where it's :
esc{R19:.... change to esc{R19:s1:... then load it up into CPAINT and XSAVE
the file, next run MORPH.EXE on it and it should work.
