WELCOME TO THE EMSKETCHER!(tm)
                       Copyright (C) 1993,  John Alway

      This is an editor which allows the user to send upper ascii pictures
      over email transmission, and additionally allows him/her to create
      snazzy document files with ascii pictures and text.  You type text
      in as you would an ordinary text editor, and can enter the upper
      ascii text by selecting from a palette by mouse or keyboard.

      To Get Started read the file "sketch.doc," which was created by
      the EMSKETCHER.  You'll find EMSKETCHER quite easy to use.
