I think Sue is right. However, extra software (I use Snappro) is
designed to be _faster_ than Paintbrush, not _necessary_. Some of
this extra software also includes options to:
o Change the screen shot to TIFF or other formats
o Change the screen shot to Black and White
These options may be necessary in some cases, such as porting the
screen shot to another platform.
