	.SPS is the Smooshed Spectrum format.  You can view/unsmoosh it with
one of the later Spectrum viewers such as spslidex (or some such - its been
so long since I got my TT that I have already forgotten a lot of ST specific
software - but I still wish I had a TT compatible photochrome (I think that
is the program that gives such great colors on an ST/STe) program - it would be
really cool to see some of those neat .jpg pictures in 640x480x24bit on
my stock TT).

	That and a working zoo.  :)
