Picture Packer file format

Picture Packer    *.PP1 (low resolution)
                  *.PP2 (medium resolution)
                  *.PP3 (high resolution)

This is a STOS packed screen without the STOS MBK header in front of the 
data. Although the STOS screen format has a flag for the resolution this 
flag is set to medium resolution for all *.PP? files. The only correct 
resolution info is in the extension. A really brain died format.
