Hi, this is the first time I have ever used these newsgroups so please if you
want to flame me, send it to me here at /dev/null, otherwise (for instance if
you have a comment), mail me at gt3635a@prism.gatech.edu.  

Anyway on with the question...

I am working on a windows program to load in a PCX file (why windows uses PCX
instead of GIF format I'll never know), but I need to find out how the data is
stored in a PCX file and have been having lots-o-problems finding a reference.

If someone could point me in the right direction (or send me the complete
file format) I'd appreciate it.

groups so pleas mail me at my mailing address (above).
