Although I never saw or owned any of the PC, Atari, or Mac versions of DPaint, I was not doubting that they had been distributed, I just doubted that they had the exact same features and functions that the original Amiga version had.
If the other versions were just as good (or better), I suspect that I would have heard about them before, but maybe I am wrong, and the versions for other platforms were just as good at animating in particular, but I really doubt it.
Perhaps any lack of performance in other versions of DPaint's animation routines (if they don't animate as well as the Amiga version as I suspect) are due to the Amiga's superior hardware and OS integration, and not because the code is any different between versions on other platforms. Maybe I will try to find a used copy of DPaint for the PC, or Mac to test it's animation capabilities for myself to see if my assumptions are correct.
