I had occasion to use PIXMATE to create a 640 by 200 screen
(called MED-RES) by DPAINT.  If one tries to view this size
screen in USHOW (the original 996 byte version) or USHOW42
(Steven Shaem's modified version), the display you get is
automatically interlaced.  This gives you a 640 by 400 display
with a 640 by 200 picture in the upper half.

Pixmate, Dpaint I, II and III all load this picture correctly.
I have not tried Superview, DPSlide or any other PD-ish viewer.
Just thought I'd mention it.  Don't have any way to fix it though,
at least not now.
