I am a relatively new user to the NeXT. I ftp Graphics workshop and used the  
installer to install it. It said every thing is installed properly. But when I  
start up the program and try to open a file it will tell me improper link to  
converter. But the converters are all there where they are suppose to be. What  
do I do?

I ran into the same problem.  When I installed the app in
/LocalApps and the converters in /LocalLibrary/Converters
as the package prompts, I saw just what you're seeing.

But when I installed the app in ~/Apps and the converters in
~/Library/Converters, everything worked as advertised.  I'm
not sure why this rather odd "feature" should be there.
