I can successfully use pepper.gbr. File->Open loads it in just fine and I can select the brush in File->Dialogs->Brushes. FYI, I have no problems with Solaris 8/SPARC nor Tru64 UNIX 4.0D/5.0. Trying to File->Open SketchBrush-16.gih returns: Couldn't load one brush in the pipe, giving up. Ditto for SketchBrush-32.gih and SketchBrush-64.gih. -- albert chin (china@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
