at least in my version of GS there is no driver for GIF output (license
problems ?). What You can do is converting the BMPs to GIFs and
lutions?

If you're working is BATch files, there is absolutely no need to use any
executable program just to get you where you want to be when the batch
program finishes what you have it doing.
First, nothing in Arachne is set up to return you to anyplace outside of
Arachne. You need to do that with your

Put push.com at the front of the batch file and pop.com at the end. If you
want I can send you the programs.

Yes. On Simtelnet, in msdos\dirutl, there are several of these utils

Well, I don't have ppd and I'm pretty sure there must be a way to do
this without installing a TSR - you could try the method suggested by
Michael in his howto on using Arachne for a v

Dear List,
as stated one may use Arachne as an external viewer for HTML,
GIF, JPG, etc. to e.g. the Norton Commander.
I made a viewer.bat by adding to the top of arachne.bat two lines:
c:
cd \arachne
And yes this is working all right if the extensions in Norton point to
viewer.bat
