Native: well, Botticelli and Multi Botticelli are mostly it. The format is pretty simple, exactly what you would have in memory on the real machine (from $1800-$3F40):
- luminance map (40*25 = 1000 bytes, padded to 1024)
- color map (40*25 = 1000 bytes, padded to 1024)
- bitmap (40*8*25 = 8000 or $1F40)
For the PC: check out carrion's blog for some cool PhotoShop stuff. AFAIK Chronos does draw with tablet -> PhotoShop -> p4fliconv -> Multi Botticelli. For wiring pics from PC to Plus/4, almost everyone uses p4fliconv, which is part of plus4emu. (I have my own PC drawing program called Csabo's Gfx Edit, but almost no-one uses it besides me.)
Hopefully this is enough to get you started, let me know if you have more questions.
