I am having a problem with IFF files written by DeluxePaint III. I edit
a good IFF file (lo-res or hi-res) by filling the background color to white,  
transfer it to a Sun4 with Kermit (binary mode), run a program iff2sun to convert
it to a Sun raster file and it aborts with a core dump.

Also, I wrote a program that converts IFF files to Apollo bitmap files.  It uses
the PD ifflib stuff and I get the message:

  No BODY data.

These all work fine with IFF files edited with DeluxePaint II.  Obviously, DPIII
is making assumptions that I don't take in account.  Before jumping into a dump
of the file, I thought someone in net-land must know the answer.  Funny thing, 
some files that I create in DPIII work just fine!?
