Pillars - dabric

screenshot of the "doodle" program included with the microsoft mouse. it's a pretty plain looking--just some crude text buttons on the bottom, a color selector on the left, and a canvas above. the background is black, the text is white, and the drawing is in aqua.

there's a drawing on the canvas. there's some rectangular pillars, and some dino guy with the same shape of the pillars, raised higher than the rest. they're just looking forwards and smiling.

Doodle was a DOS program that was bundled with the Microsoft Mouse in 1983.

Some neat history I came across when researching the Microsoft Mouse. According to that Wikipedia article, it was later replaced by a version of ZSoft PC Paintbrush. Then it was included in Windows, and it became Microsoft Paint. So Paint apparently started outside of Windows?
