IMDISP 7.9
==================
Version 7.9 of the IMDISP program has now been released. IMDISP is an
interactive image processing program that runs on an IBM PC computer. It was
written to be used with the Voyager and Magellan images which are available
on CD-ROM. IMDISP has appeared on the GRIPS CDROM (version 4.4) and the
GRIPS 2 CDROM (version 5.6), and is currently distributed with the planetary
images CDROMs.
IMDISP 7.9 is available via anonymous ftp at ames.arc.nasa.gov
[128.102.18.3] in a file called imdisp79.zip in the pub/SPACE/SOFTWARE
subdirectory.
IMDISP79.ZIP consists of the following files:
IMDISP.EXE - IMDISP program version 7.9
IMDISP.DOC - User's Guide for IMDISP 7.9
IMDISP.HLP - IMDISP Help file
PALETTES.ZIP - Collection of color palettes
PAL.BAT - Batch file to display each color palette
CYCLE.BAT - Batch file to color cycle each color palette
COPIM.EXE - Image copying program
CONVERT.EXE - Pixel conversion program
The demo files have not changed but have been repackaged into two
files of more manageable sizes, IMDISPD1.ZIP and IMDISPD2.ZIP. The demo
requires a minimum of a 800x600 graphics display, 3MB of memory, and 3MB of
hard disk space.
Being one of the programmers for IMDISP, I would appreciate any
feedback on IMDISP, including any problems encountered and suggestions for
improvement. The features of IMDISP are listed below.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
