Description

A paint program for MS-DOS, sold to schools by Sorrel Computing.

Provenance

Bought as part of a box of disks at an estate sale and donated anonymously. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. All of the work survives. The repairs are listed in the record’s damage map.

Access

Free, in the Lazarus reading room in Vancouver and in partner reading rooms. The license does not permit copies to be taken away.

In the reading room it runs in emulation under profile LZE-DOS-12, from a read-only copy of the recovered image, as it would have on MS-DOS.
